Compliance with the principle of legality and responsible, fair and sustainable action have always been top priorities for our family business. We believe that this form of corporate approach is essential to our long-term success. However, we can only achieve this together with our business partners. We therefore require that they comply with laws, human rights and environmental and social standards, and expect this from all our partners, suppliers and employees.
Violatons of applicable law and/or internal regulations jeopardise the long-term success of the company. This could harm binder’s reputation or prove detrimental in other ways, such as causing the suspension of orders or requiring the restitution of damages or payment of penalties. Those involved may be subject to repercussions under labour law or face claims for damages or criminal proceedings. Reporting possible violations or risks helps prevent such negative consequences.
The procedure described here applies to all German companies of the binder Group and is enacted and monitored by the Compliance team.
The electronic platform has been set up so that you can report potential violations of legal obligations and internal regulations. It can be used in suspected cases of:
Corruption
Fraud, breach of trust, embezzlement
Violation of competition law
Money laundering
Breach of data protection
Theft
Environmental and occupational health and safety violations
