Getinge's practice for seeking external assurance, including the relationship between Getinge and the appointed external auditor, is described on pages 40 and 49. The limited assurance has been performed in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements, ISAE 3000, see page 176 for details. The objective is to form a conclusion on whether anything has come to the auditor's attention that causes them to believe that the information in the Sustainability Report has not, in all material respects, been prepared in accordance with suitable criteria and the company's own reporting principles. The suitable criteria for the Sustainability Report consist of the GRI Sustainability Reporting Guidelines.
