NEW CHANNEL FOR REPORTING/WHISTLEBLOWING
Cellularline is pleased to inform you that, as part of its mission to responsibly and ethically manage its business – including upholding the highest possible standards – and in implementation of the Act nr. 24 on the 10th March, 2023, concerning “the protection of people who report violations of Union law,” it has implemented a system that allows employees and all external stakeholders, as required by the law, who are in possession of information about violations, referable to Cellularline employees and/or third parties who have or have had dealings with the Company, to privately report non-compliant behavior.Reportable behaviors may concern the violation of national or European Union regulatory provisions that harm the public interest or Cellularline’s integrity, as well as violations of the Code of Ethics, Organizational Model 231, and the system of rules and procedures adopted by Cellularline with the aim of defining an organic structure of oversight aimed at preventing the risk of committing crimes and improving corporate governance. The same Sustainable Innovation path pursued by Cellularline sees as a central driver the definition of strategies and development plans at the Governance level.
We specify that the report must be “circumstantiated” (i.e., characterized by a sufficient degree of details to allow the identification of useful elements for the purpose of verifying the merits of the report).
The internal channels implemented by Cellularline for the transmission of reports guarantee, also through the use of encryption tools, the protection of confidentiality about the identity of the reporter, the person involved and/or otherwise mentioned in the report, the content of the report and the related documentation. Cellularline has also implemented measures to protect the reporter, such as the prohibition of retaliation.
The report can be made in written or oral form through the tool of the dedicated IT platform that can be reached through the following link https://cellularline.integrity.complylog.com/, or in paper form by sending a letter to the following address:
Organismo di Vigilanza di Cellularline S.p.a.
c/o Cellularline S.p.a.
Via G. Lambrakis n. 1/A
