French Consulting is committed to responsible corporate governance. Integrity is a fundamental value of French Consulting and our corporate culture. For us, responsible corporate governance also means complying with legal requirements, internal rules, and ethical standards. Compliance is therefore an important part of French Consulting’s corporate culture. In order to investigate, remedy, and sanction compliance violations, a whistleblower system is available for employees, business partners, and third parties to contact us.
We offer several ways to report compliance violations. Whistleblowers can either contact French Consulting’s General Counsel directly by:
- email (hotline@consult-bfrench.com)
- by telephone (+ 49 (0) 174 169 8819)
- or via mail (French Consulting, Attn: Legal & Compliance, Neulandstraße 27, 74889 Sinsheim, DE).
Employees of French Consulting can also contact their supervisor directly. The supervisor is responsible for forwarding a report of a compliance violation to the Legal & Compliance Team.
In accordance with our internal process for investigations, reports – whether anonymous or not – are forwarded to the Legal & Compliance Team. This team has company-wide responsibility for compliance at French Consulting. Regardless of whether a case is submitted anonymously or not, French Consulting treats every case confidentially and does not tolerate any form of discrimination against or consequences for persons who submit a case in good faith (i.e. not for abusive purposes). All data transmitted to us in the context of a case will be treated confidentially and will only be stored and used for the purpose of clarifying a possible infringement within the framework of the respective applicable legal regulations.
We kindly ask for your understanding that our whistleblowing systems should only be used to report suspected breaches of law or violations of any of our policies. General complaints will not be handled via these channels.
