In 1999, UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan launched the Global Compact agreement to provide a framework to assist companies in the development and promotion of global, value-based management. To show a more explicit commitment to responsible corporate citizenship, DNV has now signed the Compact as one of more than 1,000 companies worldwide.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is defined as one of ten priority areas in DNV’s corporate strategy.

“CSR must be an integral part of our management system, business culture and our attitudes”, says Sven Mollekleiv who leads DNV’s work in the area of Corporate Social Responsibility. “And there must be accountability for this issue at all management levels throughout DNV.”
