Business conduct
We must adhere to the most demanding international codes of corporate conduct, such as the United Nations Guiding principles on business and human rights.
Communication, transparency and trust underpin all our relationships—whether with our employees, customers, investors, suppliers, partners or other stakeholders—and are central to our open and healthy culture.
Speak Up!
We believe in acting with transparency and integrity, and speaking up if something violates our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics or applicable laws and regulations. Speak up! is our global whistleblowing system for reporting suspected incidents of wrongdoing. It is open to all, confidential and ensures that issues raised will be investigated and handled carefully, with respect for the rights of all involved individuals.
