At Setterwalls, we believe that we have a responsibility for the society we operate in and an obligation to contribute to the development of it. Among our employees there is a great commitment to different social issues (CSR), which the firm encourages and supports.
Ethical and social responsibility is important in our relations with our clients, the companies of which to an increasing extent also work with these issues, and for the purpose of creating added value for our employees and when hiring new employees. Our value words - courage, commitment, resuts and responsibility – permeate our work and contribute to our corporate culture harmonizing with out external social commitment.
Setterwalls contributes in different ways to a number of organizations and CSR projects. Occassionally, we also take on assignments pro bono. Part of our social work are also issues concerning equality and diversity as well as ethical regulations for how we act as a law firm. We work actively with environmental issues such as recycling routines, green lease agreements and ensuring the environmental aspect in various purchases.
Without a doubt, CSR and its significance will grow as our society becomes increasingly dependant upon companies assuming a social responsibility. For us at Setterwalls, it is great to be able to be on the frontlines and promoting CSR work within the legal profession. Would you like to know more? Contact Jessica Barkman.
