INTRODUCTION In December 2011, AS3 aligned with the ten principles of the UN Global Compact, which covers areas such as human rights, the rights of the employee, the environment and anti-corruption. We have thus committed ourselves to work towards these principles in a context that makes sense for our company. This report is the third Communication On Progress (COP) report we have prepared for submission to the United Nations. For 25 years, we have run our company on the basis of consideration for others. It is important to us that our clients, employees and other stakeholders experience AS3 Companies as a responsible business. Our core values of being both decent and business-oriented as well as working on a long-term basis establish the framework for the way we act, and the way we do business. Based on these core values and on the basis of the ten principles of the Global Compact, we have established a Nordic code of social responsibility for our company, which we call AS3 Companies’ Code of Conduct. The COP report is based on the AS3 Code of Conduct, its purpose being to give everyone a brief insight into how we work with CSR at AS3 Companies and what ambitions we have to be part of ”making a difference”. This can be at individual, organisational or societal level. The report is not only a means of reporting to the UN, but is just as much a communication of our messages, challenges and achievements to the various stakeholders, with whom we are in contact in various ways, and to other parties who may take an interest in CSR and social responsibility. With the COP report, we also aim to promote awareness of the Global Compact, in the hope that other companies in the service sector choose to follow the same path.
