Welcome to our internal reporting centre in accordance with the Whistleblower Protection Act!

As a responsible company, we take our obligation to protect employees, customers, partners and the public interest very seriously. For this reason, we have set up this internal reporting centre to ensure that you can report concerns, irregularities or grievances securely and confidentially. Our reporting centre has been established in accordance with the provisions of this law and provides you with a safe and secure platform to report possible violations or ethical concerns. We understand that it can often be difficult to raise ethical concerns or report breaches. Therefore, we have implemented strict safeguards and protections to ensure that your identity is kept strictly confidential. We encourage you to contact the internal reporting centre without fear of reprisal or retaliation. The dedicated staff in the internal reporting centre will carefully review your report and take appropriate steps to resolve the issue or investigate further. We are committed to maintaining the integrity of our organisation and ensuring that ethical standards are upheld. Reporting an incident is simple and straightforward.
