Resolved clause
RESOLVED: Shareholders, AkademikerPension and LD Fonde, propose that the Board of Directors shall
continue to develop their reporting on the company’s efforts to respect human rights and labour rights as
well as its due diligence processes in accordance with the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business
and Human Rights (UNGPs), and in alignment with the forthcoming Corporate Sustainability Reporting
Directive (CSRD).
The disclosed information shall be updated and published at least once a year at reasonable cost, omitting
proprietary information. The disclosed information shall be made public before the Annual General Meeting
notice starting in 2025 and may be included in the existing reporting suite.
Supporting statement
SUPPORTING STATEMENT: AkademikerPension and LD Fonde acknowledges the company for the significant improvements in
the reporting in these areas in the past year. AkademikerPension and LD Fonde furthermore wishes
to cooperate with the company on further improvements in reporting.
• The pressure on companies to demonstrate respect for human rights is increasing as the link
between long-term value creation and a prudent approach to human rights risks is becoming more
and more established. It is therefore increasingly important for companies and investors alike that
companies demonstrate that they understand and navigate the business opportunities and risks
related to the corporate duty to respect human rights and labour rights throughout the entire value
chain. Failure to do so may leave the company vulnerable to operational disruptions, litigation risk
and increased scrutiny by supervisory authorities as well as reputational risk and loss of license to
operate in eyes of customers, employees, investors, and business partners.
