Whistleblower Function

Whistleblower Function

At Culinar, we prioritize conducting our business ethically and fairly. Trust and respect among our employees, customers, suppliers, and other stakeholders are essential to us. It is crucial to prevent activities that could compromise product quality, safety, and stakeholder integrity. We are committed to protecting our brands from misconduct and strive to act in a sustainable, responsible, and value-driven manner. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for corruption, discrimination, abuse, and all forms of criminal activity.

Our whistleblowing function provides all employees and individuals with a working relationship with the company the opportunity to report wrongdoing anonymously. The law protects whistleblowers from employer retaliation and ensures their identities remain confidential.

What Types of Abuses are Covered by the Law?

This function is intended for situations where there is a suspicion of wrongdoing that serves the public interest and requires attention. Examples of such wrongdoing include food safety risks, bribery and corruption, severe harassment or discrimination, safety deficiencies that jeopardize health and lives, and environmental crimes. However, the law does not cover conflicts that pertain solely to the individual’s working or employment conditions, such as disputes between employees or wage issues.
