Sustainability | Respect/Equality

EAB should always be considered as a safe workplace

Everyone should feel safe and comfortable when working at EAB. The time we spend at work should be pleasant and meaningful. Our satisfaction at work increases if our work colleagues and workgroups provide each other with support and assistance. It is therefore important that steps are taken to counter and eliminate all types of discrimination, harassment and bullying at the workplace.

Zero tolerance

EAB has zero tolerance for all forms of bullying, such as discrimination and harassment based on the seven faces of discrimination: The employee’s gender, gender expression or identity, ethnic origin, ability, sexual orientation, age, religion or other faith. This means that all employees must have the same rights and opportunities within EAB as well as the same responsibility to follow applicable guidelines.

In order to achieve the above, we have created EAB’s Equality Policy against discriminatory harassment. It includes goals and strategies for maintaining a safe and accepting workplace, with respect and sensitivity to human rights.

We care about diversity. It helps us to develop and gives us a positive working environment.

Sustainability | Work environment

Our goal is for all employees to feel satisfied

EAB manages and develops the work environment in conjunction with their employees. Enjoying one’s work and having opportunities for growth in a pleasant environment is important for us. Prior to decisions regarding new investments, new buildings or renovations, or other changes to the business, issues regarding the work environment and general environment are discussed, risks are examined and the consequences are carefully assessed in conjunction with our employees. When purchasing equipment or making changes to production facilities or offices, ergonomics are also considered an important criterion in the decision.

EAB – a healthy company

EAB encourages all of its employees to keep healthy by providing access to a gym, recreation facilities with massage, taking part in various athletic events, etc. We also ensure an active free time for employees through sponsoring various teams, for example football, tennis, hockey, volleyball, fitness facilities, etc.

EAB grows as our employees grow

We want to take advantage of each employee’s knowledge and experience and thereby encourage and motivate everyone to feel committed, take initiative and grow within the company. When our employees grow into their job, this improves the level of competency within the entire organisation. At EAB, there is an opportunity for growth in all areas, both theoretical as well as practical.

Introductory training for everyone

Regardless of the position that a new employee is hired for, everyone must undergo introductory training, including documentation. The length of the introductory training varies depending on what job is involved. The goal is for everyone to understand EAB’ values and culture and thereby feel a sense of responsibility, community and motivation.

GOALS

Every employee should be a happy employee EAB the best place to work

”Through 100 % dedication, together with a high level of technology and the ability to find rational and efficient design and production solutions, we will achieve profitability for each project without sacrificing on quality or client benefits.”

Sustainability | Finance

Profitability generates growth opportunities

For EAB, sustainability is our path to sound finances and profitability. We keep to our promises and are well aware that our latest deliveries are the start of the next order. That is how we build long-term relationships with our clients. These relationships are crucial for our success.

Growth enables us to develop

Our goal is to increase sales by 10 % per year and maintain good profitability. If we are running a profitable business, this gives us the power to expand, develop, invest and thereby create high competitive barriers. It also gives us the opportunity to act swiftly and efficiently when new opportunities for development of the company arise. When we expand in a financially stable manner, we also create new jobs and ensure stability for our employees by becoming resilient even when the market is experiencing a recession. It is a simple equation: profitability generates growth, growth generates profitability.

Tack för att ni har gjort ett val för miljön!

Härmed intygas att EAB AB

köper 7 600 MWh biogas under avtalstiden, vilket minskar utsläppen med 1 559 ton koldioxid.

Intyget gäller för tiden 2019-01-01 - 2020-12-31.

Emma Tronarp Trawén Head of Energy Sales E.ON Energilösningar AB

Biogas innebär: Biogas bildas när organiskt material bryts ned. Avräkningen sker per årsbasis. Biogas är ett förnybart bränsle och ger därför inget netto-tillskott av koldioxid vid förbränning. Kolet i biogasen finns redan med i naturens kretslopp.
