Our approach

The objective of corporate responsibility is to ensure long-term business conditions from the financial, social and environmental aspects.

We are constantly pushing to improve different aspects of our operations and responsibility is broadly reflected in the decisions we take.

For us, economic sustainability forms the foundation on which everything is built. Competent people, a well-managed personnel and environmental agenda form the foundation for economic sustainability.

Responsibility is part of Ruukki’s everyday business. In 2011, Ruukki achieved the position of industry leader in Dow Jones Sustainability indexes.

Our goals in the sectors of responsibility are:

Environment

Promotion of energy efficiency
Increased recycling and materials efficiency
Compliance with environmental systems and requirements of environmental permits

People

Improved safety
Strengthened top-quality expertise
Development of leadership culture

Society

Achievement of financial targets
Compliance with Code of Conduct

The promotion of energy efficiency and continuous improvement in safety are high on Ruukki’s corporate responsibility agenda. We want to continue ranking among the best companies in responsibility in our sector.

Ruukki aims to achieve a strong market position in main market areas in all its core businesses. This imposes high standards on how things are done.
