Sustainability
Sustainability Report
The Sustainability Report, that is a part of the Annual report, is reported according to Global Reporting Initiatives guidelines G4.
It means that our operations will contribute to sustainable development and that sustainability will be taken into consideration in all our activity.
Our role
PostNord offers communication and logistics solutions to, from and within the Nordic region. Our operations include the important universal service obligation of guaranteeing postal services in Sweden and Denmark. We are also the Nordic region’s leading business communication operator and one of the region’s largest logistics operators.
Our responsibility
PostNord’s business is built on transports, and we work on a continuous basis to reduce our impact on the environment. When we use less fuel we reduce our costs and strengthen our competitiveness – while also reducing our environmental impact.
PostNord’s proactive work with quality issues creates value for our customers, owners and other stakeholders. Good leadership and dedicated employees are essential to the creation of new business opportunities and to improving our capacity to continue delivering high-quality communication and logistics solutions.
To create value for our owners and maintain the confidence of all of our stakeholders, we need to act responsibly and be a good and reliable business partner. We support and run our operations in accordance with the corporate responsibility principles of the UN Global Compact and OECD guidelines for multinational companies.
Our goals
PostNord’s business is governed based on financial and non-financial targets that cover our financial-, environmental- and social responsibility.
Our overall goal for our sustainability work is to create long-term value for our customers, owners and other stakeholders while ensuring the fulfilment of the group’s universal service obligations.

The capacity of PostNord managers to lead during change, in combination with employee commitment, is crucial to the success of the structural changes that are underway – and for PostNord’s long-term success.
