Enterprises should not use third parties such as agents and other intermediaries, consultants, representatives, distributors, consortia, contractors and suppliers and joint venture partners for channelling undue pecuniary or other advantages to public officials, or to employees of their business partners or to their relatives or business associates.", see also further guidelines in chapter "Combating Bribery, Bribe Solicitation and Extortion" in OECD's [OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises](http://www.oecd.org/daf/inv/mne/48004323.pdf).

## Competition Policy

We foster fair competition, ethical practices and transparency throughout our business dealings. We will carry out our activities in a manner consistent with all applicable competition laws and regulations, taking into account the competition laws of all jurisdictions in which the activities may have anti-competitive effects. We will refrain from entering into or carrying out anti-competitive agreements, including agreements to: a) fix prices; b) make rigged bids (collusive tenders); c) establish output restrictions or quotas; or d) share or divide markets by allocating customers, suppliers, territories or lines of commerce.

## Anti-Harassment Policy

We prohibit harassment of any kind. Incidents should be reported to the management and will always be investigated. Retaliation is strictly prohibited.

## Child & Forced Labour Policy

We forbid use of child and forced labour as defined by the Finnish laws, see [Laki nuorista työntekijöistä](https://finlex.fi/fi/laki/ajantasa/1993/19930998) and [Valtioneuvoston asetus nuorille työntekijöille erityisen haitallisista ja vaarallisista töistä](https://finlex.fi/fi/laki/ajantasa/2006/20060475).

## Environmental Policy

As a bare minimum we, our suppliers and partners are to follow environmental laws, in Finland see [Luonnonsuojelulaki](https://finlex.fi/fi/laki/ajantasa/1996/19961096). However, we strongly encourage going beyond that. We will be periodically reviewing [United Nations' Sustainable Development goals](https://www.un.org/sustainabledevelopment/sustainable-development-goals/) for goal setting and adoption in our operations.
