People, safety and human rights
At Skuld, we are committed to ethical business practices, human rights, and employee well-being. We promote flexibility, work-life balance, and targeted training initiatives to support our people. Externally, our Supplier Code of Conduct and Correspondent Guidelines set clear expectations for human rights, decent working conditions, and responsible business conduct.
Human Rights Working Group
Skuld's cross-functional Human Rights Working Group ensures our commitment to human rights is embedded in the organisation. The group works to assess how Skuld, suppliers, and business partners adhere to fundamental human rights, and whether employees enjoy decent working conditions across all our international offices. Our board-approved Human Rights Policy outlines Skuld's commitment to respect, support, and promote human rights. It includes our commitment to comply with the Norwegian Transparency Act.
ESG in practice
ESG in practice' is a new series of articles where Skuld colleagues focus on how Skuld meets the industry's transition to a more sustainable future. In an increasingly complex world, Skuld is dedicated to delivering on activities and initiatives that unlock Environmental, Social and Governance value for ocean businesses.
Amalie Florival, Maritime Trainee, has hit the ground running at Skuld, seizing on the opportunities provided through the Norwegian Shipowners’ Association programme to make an instant impact across a range of initiatives. Here Amalie explains how the responsibility she’s been given, combined with her own obvious drive and talent, is supercharging progress.
A structured, goal-orientated and clearly defined approach to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is helping Skuld build on strong cultural foundations to attract, develop and retain talent. The ripple effects of positive change, she believes, have the potential to fan out far beyond the walls of Skuld itself.
Understanding risk, sharing knowledge and staying at the forefront of the latest developments are key to assisting members, clients, and the wider industry, in embracing a greener tomorrow today. It's a demanding task, but Krester Krøger Kjær, Senior Vice President and Head of Skuld Copenhagen, couldn't be more passionate about embracing the challenge and enabling change.
