Hydro’s cooperation agreement with Amnesty aims to safeguard and promote human rights in areas where the company operates and to support Amnesty’s human rights work.
In addition, Amnesty supplies speakers and training for Hydro employees in handling dilemmas related to human rights. Amnesty occasionally participates in the Hydro Fundamentals leadership development program.
“Both Amnesty and Hydro consider dialog and cooperation important tools in meeting challenges relating to human rights in an increasingly globalized business world,” says Ivar Oellingrath of Hydro’s Corporate Social Responsibility staff.
