Compliance-Management-System
Bertrandt has a compliance management system and is constantly developing this further. The compliance management system pursues the strategic approach of preventing misconduct in advance, investigating incoming suspicions of breaches of rules or risks as quickly as possible and responding appropriately with the necessary measures.
In terms of prevention, risk analyses, codes of conduct for employees and business partners and a broad range of training courses are key components of the compliance management system.
A comprehensive reporting system, which also enables anonymous reporting and communication with Bertrandt's compliance officers, is used to detect risks and clarify suspected cases. The internal investigation process follows strict guidelines.
In response to identified risks or breaches of rules, a compliance reporting system is used, among other things, to inform the Management Board, Supervisory Board or management appropriately. Violations of rules or irregularities are responded with the required operational and disciplinary measures.
Bertrandt will not take any retaliatory measures against whistleblowers who report breaches of rules or irregularities within the Group in good faith.
