Our Responsibility for Human Rights and Working Conditions
At Fjord Tours, we take our social responsibility seriously. We are committed to ensuring that through our products and partners, we respect fundamental human rights and contribute to decent working conditions.
The Norwegian Transparency Act - our contribution to a more responsible tourism industry
The Norwegian Transparency Act, which came into force on July 1, 2022, is an important tool for promoting responsible business practices. The law requires companies like Fjord Tours to regularly assess how our suppliers and partners handle human rights and working conditions.
For us, this is about more than just complying with the law – it's about contributing to a sustainable and ethical tourism industry that our guests can be proud to be part of.
Our work with due diligence assessments
We conduct regular due diligence assessments of our business relationships in accordance with OECD guidelines. This involves:
- Mapping potential risk areas in our value chain
- Assessing how our partners handle human rights and working conditions
- Following up on any non-compliance and working for continuous improvement
- Documenting our work through annual reports
Transparency and accessibility
Transparency is fundamental to building trust. Therefore, we:
- Publish an annual report on our due diligence work
- Respond to inquiries from anyone who wants more information about how we handle these issues
- Make information easily accessible on our website
