Corporate Social Responsibility

Swedish companies venturing abroad are expected to act in accordance with internationally accepted norms and principles - human rights, labour law, environment and anti-corruption - to which Sweden has committed itself.

Experience and market knowledge

The Swedish Trade Council has a long experience of international business and a unique knowledge of local conditions in over 60 markets. We support Swedish export companies who need advise or hands-on assistance.

Our CSR offer to Swedish companies includes:

We are adopting to the international ISO standard (ISO 26000) for social responsibility accepted during 2010. The standard is not intended or appropriate for certification purposes but provides significant guidance on the underlying principles of social responsibility.
