How ethical is Nokia?
Nokia, a mobile phone brand owned by HMD Global Oy, is given a high Ethical Rating by The Good Shopping Guide. We are pleased to say that Nokia receives a high Good Shopping Guide Ethical Score in our Ethical Mobile Phones Ratings Table and has therefore met our minimum Ethical Benchmark and is eligible for Ethical Accreditation.
In which areas does Nokia perform well?
There is currently no publicly known connection between Nokia, its parent companies and the Nuclear Power, Fossil Fuels or Armaments industries. The brand therefore receives a top rating for these research categories.
Additionally, HMD has a good, robust Code of Conduct, which specifies that child labour (for children under the age of 15) will not be tolerated.
How can the Nokia brand improve its Ethical Rating?
The Good Shopping Guide’s score results from 15 ethical criteria in relation to Nokia. Although Nokia already meets our benchmark and is therefore already eligible for Ethical Accreditation, we recommend the company improves its score in the Conflict Minerals criterion.
