We must be as sustainable as possible in the environment, economy and social conditions. Our goal is to be climate neutral by 2030.
Sustainability is not just about how we run our own business. I guess it's so much about how we can contribute in a larger perspective. Nordic Benefits is an insurance intermediary that offers excellent insurance products for individuals in Scandinavia. Our products should be of high quality, and we are proud to be a contributor to smoothing social differences. Injury prevention is a priority task, and our solutions should be financially sustainable and profitable for both customers, partners and the company.
In autumn 2015, UN member states adopted 17 Sustainable Development Goals up to 2030. The UN Sustainable Development Goals are the world's common work plan to meet current needs without destroying opportunities for future generations to have their needs. Nordic Benefits has selected two of the total 17 SDGs, where we see that our business can have a particular impact.
“Ensure good health and promote quality of life for all, regardless of age. 3.8: Achieve universal coverage of healthcare, including schemes that protect against financial consequences, and universal access to basic and good healthcare.”
Our community mission is to make a boost to both dental and oral health, as well as overall health by offering dental health insurance so that it is not the wallet that decides whether one has the opportunity to take care of one's health.
10.3: Ensuring equal opportunities and reducing disparities in living conditions. Among other things, by abolishing discriminatory laws, policies and practices by promoting legislation, policies and measures suitable to achieve this goal.”
Våre forsikringer reduserer forskjeller i levekår ved at vi dekker tannhelsekostnadene for kundene våre. Mange unnlater å gå til tannlegen å få utbedret skader fordi de frykter kostnadene dette medfører. En god forsikring jevner ut økonomiske og sosiale forskjeller.Our insurance policies reduce differences in living conditions by the fact that we cover dental costs for our customers. Many people fail to go to the dentist to get their injuries repaired because they fear the cost this entails. A good insurance policy smooths out economic and social disparities.
In the community
Social responsibility and social responsibility are about what we can do to make society better for everyone. By including insurance schemes in large contracts, our goal is for everyone to have the opportunity to be part of a good insurance scheme.
While many people pay a small amount for social security, they also provide the opportunity for help and assistance to those who need it. It's social equalization in practice!
We take social responsibility through our insurance model, and by sharing our knowledge. We support businesses, projects and initiatives working to meet the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. The UN Sustainable Development Goals are a clear guide to Nordic Benefits and inspire us daily to make good and long-term choices.
In own company
Nordic Benefits wants to take sustainability into account throughout our operations. We make demands on social responsibility, environmental work and ethics both internally and to our partners and suppliers. Each employee influences the environment around us, and it is therefore important to have an awareness of what we can do to take care of the environment.
Our goal is to be climate neutral by 2025, and we are working daily to reduce our own climate footprint. In the office, we focus on reuse, we shop environmentally friendly — and we shop second-hand if possible. We minimize food waste and we encourage digital meetings where appropriate. We travel as little as possible — and preferably by public transport. We encourage employees to travel collectively, cycle and walk to work.
In addition, we support the Rainforest Fund's work to reduce CO2 emissions. We are committed to enabling artificial intelligence and technology to drive green growth by optimising resource use and improving decision-making.
We comply with HSE legislation and have safe, safe and good workplaces.We take responsibility for working with gender equality, human rights, workers' rights and social conditions with us. With us, it is a matter of course to be organized.
In products and services
- Sustainable products Our core business is to provide dental health insurance to the adult population in Scandinavia. It should not be the size of the wallet that determines whether you have the opportunity to take care of your oral and dental health, and thus also your overall health.
That's why we offer great insurance at the lowest possible price for the consumer -- and work long-term to improve the dental health of the adult population. We know that good dental health leads to better overall health and quality of life.
Our main focus is to assist our customers in the best possible way with preventive measures, prompt and proper handling of injury cases, as well as good professional advice.
- Sustainability for people Preventing injuries is sustainable. Repairing damage as quickly as possible is also sustainable. Good insurance policies that equalize social disparities are sustainable both for the person concerned, and for society as a whole.
Our customers find that the insurance we offer makes a positive difference in their lives and everyday lives. Having satisfied customers is therefore our most important management tool.
- Sustainable services We strive to work as environmentally friendly as possible, and we assist our partners and customers so that we work as digitally as possible. This applies to meetings, claims management, customer service and consulting.

We support the Rainforest Fund because a large and viable rainforest is one of the world's most effective climate measures.
The rainforest is considered the lung of the earth and is the oldest ecosystem on land. It is important because, among other things, it prevents climate change, it preserves natural diversity and it is the livelihood of all people and animals.
Did you know, for example, that between 50 and 80% of all animal and plant species are found in the rainforest? Or that the Rainforest is considered the world's largest CO2 store and the Earth's lung, because it sequesters at least 1,000 billion tons of CO2?
In addition, we can think of the rainforest as the world's largest pharmacy, as its existence is essential for the existence of all the world's plants and animals as well. We are constantly finding active ingredients for important medicines in nature. Among other things, in the venom of one of Brazil's largest snakes, a molecule has been found that could become important in future corona medicine. Source: Regnskog.no
