Pandora Ethics

Our CSR and compliance programme Pandora Ethics covers all Group activities, from design and choice of materials, through sourcing and crafting to trading and after sales services.

Pandora Ethics consist of our Ethics policies and guidelines as well as a range of monitoring and controlling tools that aim to ensure that we honor our commitments within human rights, environment, health & safety, business ethics and ensure responsible supplier dialogue and auditing.

Our Pandora Ethics policies and guidelines cover the 10 principles defined by the United Nations Global Compact and they are fully aligned with the more than 120 provisions of the Responsible Jewellery Council’s Code of Practices defining honest and responsible business practices within the jewellery value chain.

Four core policies of Pandora Ethics

Business Integrity Policy
Health and Safety Policy
Human Rights Policy
Environment Policy

We continuously engage with all business entities and units to ensure a successful integration of the Pandora Ethics programme. Activities include but are in no way limited to:

Regular monitoring of our anti-corruption programme to review the suitability, adequacy and effectiveness.
