Performance Indicators
We have performed an overall assessment and survey of adverse
Attachments impacts on human rights and decent working conditions in our
operations, as well as location and project-specific risk assessments.
The results of our initial due diligence can be summarized in a couple
of main risks and risk areas.

The first risk area is related to our supply chain. The second risk
area is related to our yard in Thailand, but also to some extent to our
Haugesund yard. The two areas are intertwined, as we have several
contractors working in our yards and some of the potential risk
identified is related to enterprises working in our yards and personnel
suppliers providing us with resources.

Human rights risk in our yards


At our yard in Haugesund, onshore in Norway, and on the Norwegian
continental shelf, the risk of human rights violations has been assessed
as low due to the incorporated procedures and policies, the extensive
cooperation with unions and use of collective agreements, along with

constitutes an important part of Aibel’s supplier- and third party
approval process. We approach supply chain risk on several levels and as
described earlier, we ensure commitment to the prevailing principles in
our Code of Conduct from all suppliers and subcontractors.

Actions planned based on due diligence


Several measures were implemented during 2022 in order to support
and improve on our existing due diligence framework, and further
measures are scheduled for implementation going forward. The main
areas include contract requirements and polices, internal information
campaigns and training of key internal stakeholders and gatekeepers.
Also, IT investments and improvements, new checklists in both
upcoming and existing tools, updating country risk assessment lists
and procedures, and finally categorizing and remedying risk related to
specific roles.
