The global challenge
The possibility to provide people with effective, high-quality health care is a major challenge in most countries. The combination of increasing populations and longer life expectancies increases the pressure on health care systems.
Getinge is committed to finding solutions to these challenges and thereby enhancing the quality of life for people. We do this by providing our customers with the necessary knowledge, technology and resources to gain optimal clinical outcomes and, ultimately, to save lives.
Our employees
Making sure that all employees feel engaged, empowered and encouraged to contribute is a key objective for Getinge. Building a proud global organization is in line with the company’s intention to inspire employees to develop and do their best. Our new Performance Development Process replaces traditional annual reviews with regular feedback, conversation and clear objective setting.

As we want to be an attractive employer, both for today’s and tomorrow’s employees, providing equal employment and development opportunities to all employees – regardless of gender, race, religion and other irrelevant contextual factors – is the foundation for all our efforts.
Human Rights
Every person around the world deserves to be treated with dignity and equality. Our dedication to human rights, regardless of where in the world we operate, is established in our Code of Conduct and Human Rights Policy. Any Getinge employee who suspects violations of our policy is expected to speak up, and the company is committed to investigate and act appropriately.
Accessibility
The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA) aims to identify, remove and prevent barriers for people with disabilities. Getinge Canada is committed to complying with the accessibility standards defined within the AODA, by providing accessible content, information and services to people with disabilities.
In an effort to continue to provide our customers with an exemplary customer experience, we invite you provide your feedback on our compliance with these accessibility standards by contacting us at info-canada@getinge.com.
Pratham
Getinge supports Pratham since 2018. The cooperation with Pratham is based on our strong belief that education is a powerful way out of poverty. Getinge contributes through the initiative ‘Swedish Industry for Quality Education in India’, which focuses on helping children in the Assam region learn to read and count.
