Loparex Germany GmbH & Co. KG

Compliance – Speak Up!

Dear Employees and Business Partners of Loparex in Germany,

Loparex maintains a reputation for high performance and quality in order to strengthen the trust placed in the organization by its employees, shareholders, business partners and any other interested party. Integrity and conformity with company guidelines and the law in general are therefore of the highest priority at Loparex.

In order to safeguard the integrity of our business and avert potentially damaging situations, Loparex places a high priority on identifying compliance violations. Since Loparex values an open company culture, every Interested Party who is aware of compliance risks is encouraged to confide the situation to an appropriate contact within the company, such as a supervisor, the human resources department, or Loparex's compliance officer.

In addition, Loparex Germany offers a secure whistleblower portal, a web-based hotline for providing information on possible compliance violations. This allows such information to be shared in a safe, confidential manner at any time and from anywhere in the world. Submitted tip-offs are forwarded to the Compliance Department of Loparex Germany, which confidentially processes any report received.

Our hotline serves to identify and avoid major risks for the company. For this reason, only notifications referring to severe compliance violations are accepted and processed here, particularly those involving criminal business activity (e.g. acts of corruption), antitrust violations, and data protection breaches.

Accusations against a person can result in serious consequences for them. The whistleblower portal should therefore be used responsibly. Reporters are requested only to share information that they are convinced is accurate, acting in good faith and to the best of their knowledge. Knowingly submitting false information can result in prosecution under criminal and labor laws.

In the interests of improved readability, the text on this portal uses only masculine pronouns, where applicable. Please understand that no discrimination is intended by this in any way.

Only by working together can we keep our business safe and successful. So if you see something: speak up!
