Building a sustainable future together

With our Sustainability Programme extending to 2030, we guide and develop Varma’s sustainability work. We are committed to safeguarding our customers’ pension, investing responsibly, promoting sustainable work ability, and being a good workplace for our employees.

Our Sustainability Programme is based on the environmental and social impacts we have identified, together with our stakeholders, as material, as well as on the risks and opportunities in our value chain. 

In line with our strategy, we focus on actions that truly make a difference and continue high-quality work in sustainability.

The Sustainability Programme consists of four parts: Safeguarding your pension, Preparing for the future by investing responsibly, Promoting sustainable work ability and A good workplace for our employees.

We have defined goals and measures for the various parts of the Sustainability Programme, as well as indicators for measuring their implementation. We report on the progress of the Sustainability Programme and the achievement of its goals in our Sustainability Statement.  

 

Safeguarding your pension

We manage our customers' pension matters with efficiency and care. Our service is proactive and attentive to your individual needs. You receive reliable information to support your decisions.

We secure the accrual of your pension through statutory pension insurance. We pay you the pension you are entitled to – now and in the future. If your work ability weakens, we are here to support you.

We carry out our work ethically and transparently and expect the same from our supply chain. Our established principles guide our actions. Trust is the foundation of our customer relations.

Preparing for the future by investing responsibly

We invest profitably and securely. Our investment decisions take into account the impacts of climate change, biodiversity loss, and geopolitical instability, while also identifying new opportunities.

We leverage modern technology to assess the impact of global developments on our investments.

We promote responsible practices across our investment targets.

Our investments in domestic growth create new jobs and strengthen the economy.

Promoting sustainable work ability

Our aim is to ensure that as many people as possible can participate in working life. We support our corporate clients in preventing and managing work ability risks.

Our work ability management services are designed to benefit all our corporate clients. We place particular emphasis on supporting those whose employees face the highest risk of disability.

We turn data and professional insights into knowledge on work ability management, contributing to public discourse for the benefit of all.

A good workplace for our employees

We are committed to promoting a good working life by being a good workplace ourselves. Thriving Varma employees succeed in their work.

We continuously develop our skills and stay attuned to change. We foster an inclusive and humane work community where everyone can be themselves. We proactively take care of our work ability.

For us, a good workplace also means pay equality and transparency, and support for balancing different phases of life and career.
