Social conditions

It is about responsibility for people – in our organisation, in the value chain and in the local communities where we operate.

Social guidelines

Social conditions are closely linked to the way we plan, run and develop the business. We work with clear frameworks and follow-up so that the initiative works in practice close to the people it concerns.

A good place to work

We work purposefully with the working environment, safety and well-being. This is achieved through, among other things:

  • systematic management of health, safety and welfare
  • focus on wellbeing and teamwork
  • measurements and follow-up with concrete action plans

Skills development is an integrated part of everyday life and is supported through internal courses across the organisation.

Community and neighbours

Daka is part of the local communities where we operate. This entails a commitment to openness and dialogue about matters that affect the surrounding environment.

We provide ongoing information, participate in dialogue groups and collaborate with municipalities and authorities. If any questions or inconveniences arise, they are handled in dialogue with those affected.

Sponsorships and local engagement

We engage with local communities through selected sponsorships and partnerships.

Our sponsorships are primarily aimed at local associations and initiatives that contribute to the well-being of children and young people in the local areas.

Responsibility in the value chain

Social responsibility also extends beyond our own activities. In collaboration with suppliers and partners, we demand responsible behaviour and proper conditions in line with our Supplier Code of Conduct.

Drivers and the cooperation with hauliers are an integrated part of the delivery and the customer service experience, and therefore naturally form part of the requirements we set.

Daka's role in society

Daka carries out a task of critical importance to society by managing animal by-products. Through safe collection and processing, we contribute to the prevention of infection, food safety and a stable supply in the agricultural and food sectors.

Local initiative provided new kits

24 U11 girls from Hatting-Torsted Fodbold can now line up in matching kit thanks to their own great effort and support from Daka.

Understanding strengthens collaboration

Through Insights Discovery we work on understanding each other's strengths and differences, so we can collaborate better in our day-to-day work.

More than football in Romalt

Romalt IF is more than just a football club. Here, people meet across ages and skill levels, and Daka is a proud sponsor of the activities that bring the local community together.

Support for families at Christmas time

Behind Julehjælp Trekantområdet stands a strong community of volunteers and local businesses. Daka supports the initiative, which helps families during the Christmas season.

The DAKA award for local enthusiasts

The DAKA Award puts the spotlight on the volunteers who make a difference for children and young people in Hedensted Gymnastics Club. Daka is proud to support that commitment.

Part of Denmark's veterinary preparedness

Daka forms part of Denmark’s veterinary preparedness and can be activated in the event of outbreaks of serious livestock diseases. An important contribution for animals and society.

– and about the products and solutions that contribute to the circular economy.

Our products

At Daka, organic by-products are recycled into fertilizer, energy and feed ingredients. On the product pages, you can see how they become part of new loops.

Climate and environment

We work with both the reduction of emissions and the development of solutions that contribute to a more resource-efficient utilisation of raw materials.

Governance

A responsible effort on climate and the environment requires clear frameworks. Here you can read about Daka’s management, governance and accountability as the basis for operations and quality.
