Valio is proud to honour its corporate responsibility

The company complies with legislation and the stipulations of other authorities, and takes stakeholders' expectations into account in its operations.
Valio's corporate responsibility is crystallised in the company's headline value Responsibility for well-being. It guides Valio operations and requires responsible performance in production, customer relations, marketing, human resources policy, the development of the working community, environmental policy and in dairy cattle care.

Through profitable operations, Valio bears its responsibility for securing the continuity of the work of its owners - Finnish milk producers. Together with its strategic partners, Valio also bears its responsibility for the efficiency of the Finnish food chain.

Valio's Corporate Responsibility Report describes the operations of both Valio Ltd and to some degree of Valio Group, in terms of its responsibility for well-being and corporate responsibility, providing full financial statements. Economic, social and environmental perspectives are adopted in accordance with the United Nations Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guidelines.

The economic perspective is represented by the financial statements section of the Report and a review of the economic operating environment.

In addition to Valio's declared values, responsible operations are guided and defined by the operating principles that are part of Valio's management system and have been added to Valio's strategy. The operating policy includes principles concerning, for example, the environment, personnel, product safety, customer relationships, marketing communications, and milk production chain quality standards. Valio has also determined more detailed operating principles for these and other areas, such as operational safety, good production practices, purchasing, information management, communications and initiatives. These operating principles are recorded in Valio's certified quality management system.
