Johannesbad - Group whistleblower system
Welcome to the whistleblowing system of the Johannesbad - Group
 
Protected reporting channels - internal and external - are essential for effective compliance in our company. Just like the protection of internal whistleblowers from sanctions, they promote the reporting of possible misconduct and serve the comprehensive clarification and investigation of violations of rules.
 
We provide internal and external whistleblowers with various ways of finding out about possible breaches of rules. Our whistleblower system is a protected channel through which our employees and external persons can report information on possible misconduct while maintaining the confidentiality of their identity and, if desired, completely anonymously. Breaches of rules are negligent or intentional violations of regulations, laws and guidelines, for example. This also includes breaches of duty by employees of the Johannesbad Group. Of course, any violations of rules can also be reported through other channels, such as directly to managers, the Executive Board or the Compliance Department.
 
We take any reports of violations very seriously, clarify them comprehensively and respond appropriately, taking into account the relevant legal standards, in particular from labor law, data protection law and co-determination law.
 
Whistleblowers who have obtained information about violations in connection with their professional activities or in advance of professional activities and who report or disclose such information to us and give it in good faith are protected from sanctions on our part by a policy. This policy can be found on the intranet on the home page under Policies & Form in the Policies subfolder and then under Personnel.
