“We already support the UN Sustainable Development Goals through our current work, so it was natural for us to join the initiative of the Global Compact Network as well.”
The Global Compact programme was established by the United Nations and is the largest network of companies in the world supporting sustainable goals to create a better world for all.
Being a member of the network, JGH Group is joining Global Compact Network Denmark.
Global Compact Network Denmark is working to protect and respect human rights, to avoid corruption, to enforce the fundamental rights of labour forces and to protect the environment.
“As a company we support all of the principles set up by the Global Compact
initiative,” says CEO Thomas Algreen Nielsen.
