Compliance

Lawful conduct and ethical behavior are an integral part of our business activities and an indispensable prerequisite for securing our corporate success in the long term.

The Code of Conduct drawn up is intended to encourage and support all members of our company to act responsibly, on their own responsibility and in compliance with the law. The rules of conduct cannot reflect every possible situation in everyday professional life, but they nevertheless represent a binding guideline and orientation framework for all of us.

Our corporate culture, which is characterized by openness and fairness, obliges each and every employee to deal with the requirements that are relevant to them.

Report grievances

We encourage anyone who has knowledge or reasonable suspicion of significant misconduct or wrongdoing (breach of law or unethical behavior) to make a report.

The "SpeakUp" whistleblower system provides a protected, secure, independent and anonymous reporting channel to draw attention to misconduct and breaches of rules, thus ensuring the sustainable success of the Group and averting damage.
