The code provides a framework for Klaveness’ governance, and defines the most important principles and ethical norms that form the basis for how we create value in Klaveness and conduct our business.
These principles and values are implemented in our governance documents.

Our Counterparty Code of Conduct defines the core legal and ethical standards we expect from our subcontractors, contractual counterparties and others we do business with.

Torvald Klaveness promotes a culture of openness and transparency. This is important for both the overall work environment and the well-being of the individual employee. Moreover, it is a key to optimal business operations. We therefore encourage whistleblowing regarding blameworthy activities or circumstances within our business.
Employees and others who have reason to believe that there are blameworthy activities or circumstances (e.g. breach of applicable legislation) within our business have the right to and are encouraged to whistleblow. The same applies if they have reason to believe that there is a violation of Klaveness Code of Conduct.
Employees who give notification in accordance with Section 2-4 of the Norwegian Working Environment Act and Klaveness Guidelines for Whistleblowing shall be protected against any unfavorable treatment as a reaction to the whistleblowing (“retaliation”).
