Company culture

Lindab is a workplace to be proud of! We offer an inclusive and safe workplace where you can dare to try new things and we want you to constantly feel that you are learning something new.

Career development and growth

Lindab offers good development opportunities. This is one of the reasons why many of our employees stay so long- more than 15% of our UK employees have worked at Lindab for over 20 years!
There are good opportunities to grow and develop within the company – many of our employees are examples of this. A large part of our services are recruited internally. As we are a group with around 5,000 employees in 20 countries, there is also a chance to work on international projects.
It is as important for Lindab to develop employees as it is to develop the company. All salaried employees have an individual development plan where they annually update goals and development measures together with their manager. Training needs and educational options are discussed which can include funded qualifications such as NVQ and apprenticeship courses.

EDI (equity, diversity & inclusion) initiatives

We provide an open, inclusive and respectful workplace based on
fair and responsible practices.
Lindab is a workplace where you can expect fair working conditions and equal opportunities in a non-discriminating environment.
We engage in fair workplace practices and expect everyone to be treated with dignity and respect. We value inclusion and encourage each other to contribute and speak openly.
We do not accept any form of intimidating or disrespectful behaviour, bullying, harassment, sexual advances or discrimination.
Employees are treated with respect and will not be subjected to physical, verbal or financial punishment.
Employees demonstrate good judgement in their interaction with colleagues, our customers, suppliers and other external stakeholders. This entails, for example, not displaying an attitude, a language or behaviour that can be perceived as offensive, sexist or exclusionary.
Our view of diversity and equality is based on the understanding that people’s differences contribute to an attractive and dynamic workplace.
We recruit, select, evaluate and promote employees based on objective criteria without regard to gender, marital or parental status, ethnic or national origin, sexual orientation, religious belief, political affiliation, age, disability or other categories protected by applicable law.
We always encourage a positive work environment, where everyone is appreciated, respected and valued for their differences and you stimulate a culture of inclusion.
If an employee discovers another employee is victimising, harassing or discriminating against a colleague or external contact, they take responsibility for acting.
Managers base employment decisions on objective criteria and qualifications, such as education, prior experience and merit.
Managers communicate clearly and openly the reasons for any change affecting an employee’s role or terms of employment.

Sustainability / environmental stewardship

We have developed a sustainability plan with objectives and activities that guides us when implementing our corporate strategy. Our sustainability work is integrated with the business and we have therefore an integrated annual report and sustainability report. The long-term targets are equally important, regardless of whether they are financial goals or sustainability goals.
Our sustainability work consists of activities in many different areas – from increasing knowledge about healthy indoor environments to launching new energy-efficient products, working systematically with safety, reducing the environmental impact of transport, finding new ways to optimise steel usage and how to support the local communities we are part of.
