Health And Safety At Work
Providing the Best Possible Working Conditions
We offer our employees a sound physical and mental work environment. Staying healthy and safe at work is a fundamental right. We take systematic and preventive actions to continuously improve working conditions, with regular assessments, collaboration and expert advice.
Our HSE policy
Lundbeck employs more than 5,500 people worldwide and we promise every one of them healthy and safe working conditions. Managers and employees collaborate to create the best working conditions with support from internal specialists. Lundbeck’s Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) Policy sets out a common framework for ensuring sound physical and mental work conditions globally.
These actions underpin our commitment to the UN Global Compact and show our contribution to UN Sustainable Development Goal 8, Decent Work and Economic Growth.
Identifying risks and hazards
We systematically assess the hazards that could arise in a working situation and perform risk assessments before making any physical or organisational changes. We also provide training and advice to managers and employees to help them enhance their physical and mental work environment.
We include indicators for the physical and mental work environment in our anonymous annual employee satisfaction survey. We take corrective and preventive actions through workshop discussions and follow-up meetings.
Working environment
Our dedication to brain health extends to our own working environment. We prioritise a healthy work-life balance and encourage continuous dialogue between employees and managers to prevent work-related stress.
The physical work environmental varies with job functions.
