These guidelines apply to the CEO, deputy CEO, the CFO and the Chief of Staff, Legal & Governance, and others who might become part of the group management, as well as to any remuneration to members of the board other than approved director fees. Reference to senior executives shall therefore be considered to include such remuneration to directors. Regarding employment conditions that are governed by rules other than Swedish, appropriate adjustments may be made in order to comply with such mandatory rules or established local practice, whereby the general objectives of these guidelines shall, to the extent possible, be met.

The guidelines contribution to the Company’s business strategy, long term interest and sustainability

The guidelines' purpose is further to create alignment between the Company’s shareholders and the senior executives. The guidelines shall also contribute to a good ethics and culture within the Company.

In order to achieve the Company's business strategy, total annual remuneration must be market-based and competitive in the employment market where the senior executive is located, as well as take into account the individual's qualifications and experience; furthermore, exceptional performance should be reflected in the total remuneration. For more information regarding the Company's business strategy, see the Company’s annual report available at the Company’s website.

However, the variable cash remuneration may correspond to up to 100 percent of the fixed annual cash salary of a senior executive if justified by extraordinary arrangements in the individual case. 

The conditions of any variable cash remuneration should be designed so that the board of directors may reduce or withhold payment of variable remuneration in the event of exceptional economic circumstances, or if the board of directors finds the payments unreasonable and incompatible with the Company's responsibility to its shareholders or stakeholders. With respect to yearly cash bonuses, it should be possible to reduce or withhold payments, if the board of directors deems it reasonable because of any other reasons. The Company shall have the possibility, under applicable law or contractual provisions, subject to the restrictions that may apply under law or contract, to in whole or in part reclaim variable remuneration paid on incorrect grounds.

When the measurable period for fulfilment of the criteria for payment of variable cash compensation has ended, the extent to which the criteria have been met shall be determined. The board of directors, after following recommendation by the remuneration committee, is responsible for the assessment of variable cash remuneration to the CEO and the CEO is responsible for the assessment of variable cash remuneration to other senior executives. With respect to financial targets the evaluation shall be based on the Company's latest publicly available financial information.

Notice of termination and severance pay

Fixed salary during the notice period and any severance pay shall in total not exceed an amount corresponding to a maximum of two years' fixed salary. A sanctioned notice period for a senior executive may not exceed twelve months, during which time salary payment will continue. In the event of termination by the executive, the notice period may not exceed six months, without the right to severance pay.

Remuneration may be paid for non-compete undertakings. Such remuneration shall compensate for loss of income and shall only be paid in so far as the previously employed executive is not entitled to severance pay. The remuneration shall be based on the fixed cash salary at the time of termination of employment, unless otherwise provided by mandatory collective agreement provisions, and be paid during the time the non-compete undertaking applies.

No senior executives are entitled to any additional benefits during the notice period and the Company has no allocated or capitalized amounts for pensions or similar benefits in the event that a senior executive leaves his or her position.

Deviations from the guidelines

The board of directors shall be entitled to deviate from the guidelines with regards to such as the recruitment of senior executives on the global labor market to be able to offer competitive terms and conditions, in an individual case if there are special reasons for it and a deviation is necessary to ensure the Company's long-term interests and sustainability or to ensure the Company's economic viability. Such deviation shall also be approved by the remuneration committee. An arrangement deviating from the guidelines can be renewed but each such arrangement shall be limited in time and shall not exceed a period of 24 months or an amount that is twice the remuneration that the individual would have received had no additional arrangement been made.

Preparation, decision processes etc.

Decisions regarding salary and other remuneration to the CEO are prepared by the remuneration committee and resolved by the board of directors. Decisions regarding salary and other remuneration to other senior executives are resolved by the CEO

The remuneration committee shall also prepare the board of directors' decisions on issues concerning principles for remuneration. The remuneration committee shall also monitor and evaluate programs for variable remuneration, both ongoing and those that have ended during the year, for the senior executives and monitor and evaluate the application of these guidelines for remuneration to senior executives, as well as current remuneration structures and levels in the Company.

The board of directors shall prepare proposals for new guidelines at least every four years and submit the proposal for resolution at the annual general meeting. The guidelines shall remain in force until new guidelines have been adopted by the general meeting.

The Company believes remuneration is one of several key components in attracting and retaining the right employees. The Company shall offer a total rewards package that is:

  • Fair and equitable. No employee should be discriminated in relation to gender, ethnicity, age, disability or any other factor unrelated to performance or experience. Rewards should be understood in relation to the level of responsibility and impact on the business that a certain role has.
  • In line with market. The Company strives to remunerate in accordance with market. Base and variable pay, as well as benefits and pensions should be in line with what each local market offers for similar positions.
  • Performance based. The Company recognizes people who are committed to sustainable long-term performance that drives the business and develops the company in line with our values and principles. High performance is the main differentiator for employee’s rewards packages.

In preparing the board of directors' proposal for these guidelines, salary and terms of employment for the Company's employees have been taken into account, with respect to information on the employees' total remuneration, the components of the remuneration and the rate of increase and increase over time, when the remuneration committees and the boards of directors have decided on the evaluation of the reasonableness of these guidelines and the limitations that follows from the guidelines.

The board of directors considers that the guidelines on remuneration to senior executives are proportionate in relation to salary levels, remuneration levels and conditions for other employees in the group.

Compliance with the guidelines must be checked annually through, among other things, the collection of documented annual targets for short-term variable remuneration.
