The Bremnes Seashore Group is a “clean” workplace. It is unacceptable for employees to come to work under the influence of alcohol or narcotic substances. In social settings, representatives of the Group may consume alcohol in moderation, where this is customary and appropriate. Consumption of alcohol is never accepted as a valid reason to breach the Code of Conduct.
In partnership with the Akan Competence Centre, we work continuously to prevent substance abuse and dependency issues among our employees and help those for whom this is already a problem. Akan helps Norwegian businesses to prevent and handle issues related to addiction in the workplace and assists employees with addiction problems to get help. Through our work with Akan, we wish to establish good systems to prevent problematic use of alcohol, narcotics, prescription medication and gambling, and where necessary intervene at an early stage. We are also working to establish assistance programmes for employees who may need such help.
