With our ever stronger market position and increasing internationality, our responsibility towards business partners, shareholders, employees and the public is also growing. In order to meet this responsibility despite increasingly complex regulations, fundamental and binding rules of conduct have been defined within the Group. This compliance guideline is intended to provide both legal and ethical guidance.

We are convinced that transparency and integrity are the cornerstones of responsible corporate governance. Uzin Utz is aware of its responsibility towards the public, employees, customers and the environment. For this reason, we have a whistleblower system. Here you have the opportunity to actively contribute to the detection of irregularities in order to ensure the long-term success of our company.

Our whistleblower system is not just a tool, but an integral part of our efforts to ensure transparency and ethical conduct. We recognize the importance of human rights and environmental risks in today's business world. We therefore encourage our whistleblowers to point out possible grievances and legal violations, as well as potential violations of human rights and environmental standards in our own business and our supply chain. Your information plays a crucial role in ensuring that our company is not only economically successful, but also socially and environmentally responsible.

As part of our compliance organization, we appoint an external, independent ombudsman. Every report received via our whistleblower system is treated with the utmost care and in strict confidence. We understand that protecting your identity is of crucial importance. We therefore allow you to submit reports anonymously if you wish. Our aim is to provide an open and protected line of communication so that you can feel free to report any concerns or irregularities without any restrictions.
