Compliance

Compliance is more complicated than ever these days. In a global environment, the legal challenges are growing constantly, which is why we are constantly adapting our processes and systems to new legal requirements. To emphasize the importance of legal compliance, it has been enshrined in the company principle “We comply with the applicable laws and with internal guidelines”. Compliance is thus an integral part of our corporate culture. We operate a compliance management system so that you, as our customer, business partner or employee, have uniform and binding rules of conduct to follow. In order put our company principle into practice, we need to be able to identify potential misconduct at an early stage. This requires, among other things, that we be informed of potential compliance violations.

Compliance violations occur when applicable law or internal policies are violated by or vis-à-vis our employees in the performance of their duties. Such violations may take the form of crimes of corruption, competition/antitrust offenses, data protection violations as well as accounting, finance and tax offenses. We rely not only on our employees, but also on our customers and business partners to help us identify and prevent compliance violations. If you notice signs of a potential compliance violation, you can report them through various channels. But whatever channel you chose, rest assured that the report will be treated as strictly confidential and remain anonymous if so requested.
