Code of Conduct

Elekta's Code of Conduct is one of the company’s key steering documents and clarifies the fundamental principles that Elekta expects all of its employees and partners, such as suppliers and distributors, to adhere. The Code of Conduct is based on the principles formulated in Elekta’s vision, mission and values and contains comprehensive information regarding Elekta’s social, environmental and financial responsibility. The areas of responsibility affected include, for example, employee rights, product safety, corruption, conflicts of interest and competition.

The Code of Conduct aligns with international principles set by the:

  • United Nations in the International Bill of Human Rights
  • UN Global Compact
  • OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises
  • ILO’s Tripartite declaration of principles concerning multinational enterprises and social policy (MNE Declaration)


The Elekta CSR Officer is responsible for development of the code and for monitoring of compliance. Any serious matters related to the code are reported directly to the CEO and the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors reviews and evaluates the code annually.

The Code of Conduct is translated in all major languages within the company, enabling it to be disseminated to all employees. Training sessions are arranged in different parts of the organization and they form part of induction training for new employees. Top management regularly signs off on the code to ensure compliance.

There is a “Whistleblower routine” through which all employees have access to the CSR Officer and can give feed-back on any suspected non-compliance with the Code of Conduct, without risking sanctions. This can be done in person or anonymously by letter, by phone (+46 8 587 254 25) or by e-mail to csr@elekta.com.
