to mapping social issues and integrating these
into strategy and management systems. With
an overview of issues and a strategy at hand,
you will be better prepared to develop the application
of CSR in your business planning and
reporting. This is briefly covered in the chapter
CSR in Strategy, Business Planning and

The dilemmas presented are relevant to
Hydro’s business. These are meant to be a basis
for discussion, and you will not find the “correct
answer” on any page in this publication. These
are real dilemmas where only well informed,
on the spot decision-making will work.
Hydro’s directives are interrelated and should
be seen as a whole. Especially the People
Policy, Health, Safety, Security and Environment
Policy, and the Code of Conduct should be kept
in mind when working on CSR issues.
Hopefully, this publication will help you develop
and improve CSR practice and business
management, in accordance with our shared
values – The Hydro Way. The experience you
and your colleagues gain through translating
these principles into practice will form the foundation
for embedding CSR in our culture and
business practices.
