The “Employee Direct Communication Line” is an additional tool for all employees to report infractions of the Code of Conduct, especially those related to health and safety, protection of the environment, bribery and corruption, human rights and equal opportunities. Reporting possible violations in a discrete manner is intended to facilitate, encourage and expand the dialogue between management and employees on issues that are related to our values commitments. We consider our employees as the most important ambassadors of our values, endeavors and principles and we expect the Direct Communication Line to increase employee participation and uphold corporate values.
