The activity duty / Aktivitet og utgreiingsplikt

The activity duty for employers is described by the Equality and Anti-Discrimination Ombud as HES-work (health, environment and security work) in the field of equality and anti-discrimination. 

All Norwegian employers are obliged to work actively, targeted and systematically to promote equality and prevent discrimination in the workplace. The employer activity duty is preventative work that employers are expected to do before incidents of discrimination occur.

The general activity duty states that all employers must identify and address challenges regarding equality and diversity in the workplace before any incidents of discrimination take place.
