Whistleblower Protection

The Whistleblower Protection Act (Hinweisgeberschutzgesetz) entered into force on July 2, 2023. It implements the European Union’s Whistleblower Directive (Directive (EU) 2019/1937) and aims to strengthen legal compliance and protect individuals who report violations of law or internal regulations.

Our company is committed to transparency, integrity, and accountability. In accordance with this legislation, we encourage employees and external parties to report potential misconduct or legal infringements. This may include breaches of applicable laws, internal policies, or ethical standards.

All reports will be handled confidentially. Individuals who submit information in good faith are protected from any form of retaliation. To report a concern, please contact Yi Zhu directly via email. By doing so, you help ensure that our organization continues to operate in a lawful and ethical manner.
