In order to become Fortum's supplier, a company has to have a company number and no unpaid taxes. Additionally, we review the financial status, insurances as well as the environmental, health and safety and quality performance of the potential supplier company. Our assessment, conducted with the Supplier Questionnaire, also covers the social responsibility of the potential supplier company. Approved suppliers are required to commit to the principles defined in the Fortum Supplier Code of Conduct. Fortum also performs selected supplier audits.
