Corporate Social Responsibility
Working with Corporate Social Responsibility for more than a century, it is an integrated part of Egmont’s DNA.
How we work with CSR
Egmont has been a responsible company since the very beginning. Our founder, Egmont Harald Petersen, came from humble beginnings, and he never forgot. To fulfil his last will, his family converted the business into a foundation supporting vulnerable children and young people.
Today, charitable activities and social responsibility is still a vital part of Egmont’s DNA. We work with responsibility within three focus areas: Responsible supply chain, Responsible company, and Responsible employees.

We encourage our employees to speak up about any conduct that is not in line with Egmont’s ethics and values. Egmont has a whistleblowing policy that includes an online whistleblowing system where employees and stakeholders can voice their concerns.
We are committed to operate with high business ethics standards and act with integrity across all our businesses and with full respect for the law. Our Business Ethics Policy covers areas such as anti-corruption and bribery, gifts and entertainment, competition law, illegal use of content and conflicts of interest. All Egmont employees will be trained in the new Policy.
