To that end, we have set up a decentralized global CSR organization responsible for CSRrelated initiatives, progress, communication and reporting. Global CSR organization with local roots The Global CSR Manager reports to the CMO (Chief Marketing Officer) who is a member of AAK’s Executive Committee. The CMO’s responsibilities include CSR, Corporate Strategy, Business Development and Marketing. At Board level, the Audit Committee is responsible for monitoring the follow-up and reporting of CSR topics, codes and policies.   Since the global CSR organization was established in early 2007, its objective has been to ensure breadth and diversity in the local teams, which are fundamental to our CSR work. The teams possess competencies in Human Resources, Health, Safety & Environment, Finance, Sourcing, Operations and Sales. At our production sites, the teams consist of five to ten people led by a CSR Team Leader. The teams at our sourcing operations in West Africa have a different composition, and may draw on competencies from the major sites. 55 AAK responsible growth Transparency Sedex Sustainability Report AAK web Partnerships Stakeholders Legislation Trends Benchmarks CSR organization Objectives and GRI Marketplace Supply chain Environment Workplace Community Group CSR policies and codes UN Global Compact
