FORWORD In 2011, AS3 chose to commit to the ten principles of the UN Global Compact. We have thereby made a commitment to working with these principles within the context that makes sense for our company. AS3 is a value-based company. We want to act in a business-oriented and professional manner, for the long term. It also means that, as a company, we strive towards living up to what is expected of a company that accepts social and societal responsibility. It is important to AS3 that we and our partners work on the basis of the Global Compact principles. Our joining the Global Compact is a signal to the world and ourselves that we take our share of the responsibility for solving some of the major challenges facing our society. Human rights are a cornerstone of our society, which help create a society in which we make room for the individual’s ability to make his or her own choices – including employment choices. Our services make an active contribution towards helping more people to enter the Labour market or return to it after a period of unemployment or illness. AS3’s health and safety certification means that we are committed to working towards the promotion of a good, healthy working environment within our own organization, as well as the counselling we provide which is also directed towards working with health and well-being among our customers. In current years, AS3 is focusing its efforts towards a digitization strategy that aims to future-proof our business activities, so that we will also be able to give our candidates the best possible assistance in the future, to get them back to the Labour market. We are very pleased indeed that this strategy is also having a positive effect in our work with CSR. Our focus on digitization means, inter alia, that we are able to reduce our reliance on transportation, reduce our paper consumption and can offer our candidates a wide range of solutions and opportunities that are more flexible and individually focused. This report is our seventh Communication on Progress (COP) Report that we are submitting to the UN. The report presents the various topics relating to AS3’s social responsibility, which in particualr has our attention. Happy reading Allan Gross-Nielsen, CEO 2
