Questions & Answers 

Compliance Whistleblower System

 

What does compliance mean?

Compliance is the adherence to legal and internal company rules (for example our Code of Conduct). Compliance with these regulations applies to all employees of Deutsche Windtechnik.

What exactly is a violation of compliance?

  1. All criminal acts / violations of laws, for example theft, fraud, discrimination, bribery, etc.
  2. Violations of internal company regulations
  3. Failure to comply with the Code of Conduct (see above)

What do I do if I discover a compliance violation?

All employees, business partners and all others are expressly called upon to report violations of any kind. This allows us to limit undesirable consequences and prevent similar misconduct in the future.

Reports of suspicions or actual violations, which can be kept anonymous upon request, are submitted using a form . You can be sure that our Whistleblowing Officer will always treat your report as confidential. This also applies if you have submitted your personal contact information, i.e. the message has not been received anonymously. Please note that if you submit an anonymous report, the Whistleblowing Officer will not be able to ask you any questions about the incident or to inform you about the further course of action in the specific case.

Just a suspicion?

Is there no evidence for the incident? Is it really a violation? Is a suspicion sufficient for the report?

Possible violations are also worth reporting to the Whistleblowing Officer. The Whistleblowing Officer reserves the right to initiate an investigation, collect evidence and to take any other necessary steps.

Who can report a violation?

  • All employees of Deutsche Windtechnik, from interns to CEOs
  • All business partners (customers, suppliers, etc.)
  • Any third party

Can reporting an incident be detrimental to me?

No. If a whistleblower reports a violation to the best of their knowledge and in good faith, they do not have to fear any disadvantages.

In addition, you always have the option of anonymously reporting a violation. Reports with specific personal information are also treated confidentially.

What happens, after I have reported an incident?

The linked diagram shows our whistleblowing process.

What if the whistleblowing officer plays a role in or is part of a reported incident?

At Deutsche Windtechnik, three appointed whistleblowing officers receive the incoming reports, ensuring that all reports can be dealt with objectively and quickly.
