TRANSPARENCY ACT
Businesses have a major impact on people, society and the environment and can contribute positively to development, but can also contribute negatively and cause harm. Businesses therefore also have a key role to play in achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
All companies, regardless of size, are expected by Norwegian authorities to identify, prevent, mitigate and account for how they manage the risk of negative impacts and remedy harm to people, society and the environment - known as due diligence.
This applies to both the business sector, public sector, and organizations. Larger enterprises are, as of July 1, 2022, legally obligated through the Transparency Act to conduct this work and demonstrate transparency by publicly reporting on their efforts. Members of Ethical Trade Norway are committed to working with due diligence for sustainable business practices. This work is based on Ethical Trade Norway's principles covering the areas of decent work, human rights, environment/climate, anti-corruption and animal welfare.
IDÉ House of Brands is subject to the Transparency Act.

ANNUAL REPORT ETHICAL TRADE NORWAY
The member report is designed to demonstrate transparency regarding our efforts in responsible business practices and sustainable business conduct, as outlined in the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. In the report, we have detailed how we conduct due diligence assessments, the challenges we face, how we address these challenges, as well as progress and results.
BASIC LEVEL FOR DUE DILIGENCE ASSESSMENTS
IDÉ House of Brands has achieved the basic level for due diligence assessments set by Ethical Trade Norway. This establishes the foundation for our work on due diligence assessments for sustainable business practices. The aim of due diligence assessments is to safeguard people, society, the environment, and animal welfare in our own operations and supply chain by systematically identifying and managing the risk of, and actual negative impact.
Achieving the basic level does not guarantee that all risks or actual impacts have been addressed.
