policy documents on social compliance

HEMA products are produced all over the world. HEMA takes responsibility in the value chain and identifies and addresses the most salient risks on violation of human rights, environment and animal welfare. We follow the OECD-guidelines for Human Rights and Environmental Due Diligence and the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights to do so.

policy documents environmental impact

HEMA works with suppliers to design and produce good products and reusable alternatives that last longer. In addition, an important part of our policy is to continuously reduce our environmental impact. We therefore closely monitor our production sites and work with a number of policy documents to comply with our development approach at all production sites in high-risk countries.
