Policies

At Bonnier Books and within the wider Bonnier Group, our reputation and how we conduct ourselves are among our most valuable assets. Everyone who works with or comes into contact with our organisation is expected not only to follow laws and internal rules but also to speak up if they witness behaviour that does not align with our values or policies.

If you become aware of serious misconduct or a breach of laws or regulations, you are encouraged to report it to a relevant manager or point of contact within the organisation.

If this is not possible, or if doing so could lead to negative consequences, you may report the matter via the Bonnier Group Whistleblowing Channel. This secure and independent channel is governed by IMYFS 2024:1 and is open to anyone who comes into contact with the Bonnier Group, including employees, freelancers, suppliers, business partners, and other external stakeholders.

If the reported misconduct concerns individuals in key positions or senior leadership roles within the Bonnier Group or its subsidiaries, the group-wide whistleblowing channel may also be used.

Go to the Bonnier Group Whistleblowing Channel.

In accordance with the Whistleblowing Act, certain Bonnier Group entities also operate local whistleblowing channels. These serve as a complement to the group-wide channel and help ensure compliance with national legislation. Individuals may choose whether to report through a local channel (where available) or the group-wide channel, depending on the nature of the concern and the parties involved.

At Bonnier Books, we recognise and closely monitor the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI). While AI brings numerous opportunities, it also presents risks and uncertainties. Our goal is to enhance our understanding of AI and explore how it can support and facilitate parts of our work, making us a better partner for our stakeholders. Our approach to AI is outlined below.

Transparency

We strive for transparent AI usage. It should be clear to readers, listeners, creators, and partners if generative AI tools have been used.

Copyright

We are committed to protecting copyright and ensuring that our publications are not used for training of AI models.

Ethical Considerations

We prioritise using AI in a manner that respects the rights of authors, creators, readers, listeners, and publishers, while maintaining Bonnier Books’ quality standards. We value unique expressions and diversity and are aware of the ethical risks associated with AI. If AI tools are used in our work, the output is thoroughly edited and reviewed by human employees before publication or other use.

Continuous Evaluation

We aim for responsible and ethical AI use and will regularly evaluate our approach to AI. We welcome an open dialogue on AI topics and our practice.
