Transparency Act

The purpose of the Norwegian Transparency Act is to promote businesses’ respect for basic human rights and decent working conditions regarding the production of goods and the provision of services. Furthermore, the Transparency Act must ensure the general public access to information about how businesses handle negative consequences for basic human rights and decent working conditions.

Norcod works actively to adapt to the requirements and expectations set by the Transparency Act. We are continuously in the process of assessing our own operations, suppliers and business partners. We will always answer all questions to the best of our ability in accordance with the obligation to provide information in the Transparency Act.
