INDUSTRIENS PENSIONSFORSIKRING A/S
RAPPORT OM SAMFUNDSANSVAR 2020
Social aspects and aspects related
to employees
Industriens Pension is a knowledge-based
company, with employees constituting our most
important resource. Consequently, we have
strong focus on respecting human rights based
on the UN Guiding Principles on Business and
Human Rights.
We have a flexible employment framework,
allowing employees to work part time, on a
flexible job scheme (light jobs on special
conditions) or under a senior-policy scheme. 14%
of the company’s employees worked on
reduced hours in 2020.
Our goal is to establish and maintain a healthy
and inspirational working environment, with
focus on promoting well-being, diversity and
workers’ rights and countering discrimination.
We focus on equal possibilities and a genderbalanced staff composition.
We help company employees to maintain their
qualifications, competencies and innovative
skills through continuing education and training,
upgrading of skills and development. In 2020,
employees spent a total of 351 days on training
and education activities, excluding short-term
courses and on-the-job training of less than half
a day.
As a company, we expect our employees to help
us live up to our corporate social responsibility.
Again in 2020, there have been no reports to
our whistleblower scheme about illegal activities
in the organisation or at management level.
Organisation
We give priority to employing trainees, and
thereby we contribute to maintaining a strong
recruitment base in the pension sector. During
2020, we had five trainees. All trainees
completing their traineeship in 2020 have
subsequently been employed at Industriens
Pension.
Through regular work climate surveys,
occasional SPOT surveys (surveys of health and
safety at work) and statutory workplace
assessments, we collect important data about
the organisation. Managers, cooperation
committees, the health and safety organisation
and the departments/teams use this data in their
efforts to promote individual employees’
satisfaction, commitment and well-being in order
to achieve our mission and vision in the best
interests of the company and its members.
A 2020 SPOT survey investigating the attitude
to working from home showed that 61% of the
respondents had the same well-being,

regardless of whether they worked from home
or from our offices in Copenhagen, while 24%
disagreed or strongly disagreed with this.
Management
Like other organisations, we are aware that
encouraging and efficient management is
essential for successful operation and
development, and we work constantly to
strengthen management, partly through
development activity, and partly through stricter
requirements for professional performance of
management activities.
Particularly in 2020, with many people working
from home due to COVID-19, initiatives have
been targeted at supporting distance
management.
Employees
We believe that a workplace where employees
feel they are given responsibility and a right to
influence decisions, and where they can
develop their competences, is the best
foundation for long-term job satisfaction.
Therefore, we place great emphasis on
engaging in dialogue about the well-being and

ongoing development of the personal and
professional competences of our employees.
In 2020, we listened to reports that some
employees were ‘a bit fed up’ with traditional
annual staff development interviews, and in the
second half-year, we introduced new and more
frequent ‘check-in conversations’, focussing on
‘well-being’, ‘development’ and ‘behaviour’. In
Q4, we held 148 of these conversations.
We want members, companies and the social
partners not only to see Industriens Pension as
a profitable and advantageous pension
company, but also as a company where the
internal work climate has a positive effect on
good and effective services and on the provision
of innovative and socially responsible products
and solutions.
For the tenth consecutive year, internal
employee surveys show high satisfaction with
Industriens Pension as a workplace.
Industriens Pension has a goal to take active
social responsibility, including complying with
UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 8 to
