Whistleblower Protection Act Portal
On July 2, 2023, the new Whistleblower Protection Act (HinSchG) came into force in Germany.
The aim of the HinSchG is to protect persons who have obtained information about violations in the course of their professional activities and report them. The HinSchG prohibits any reprisals against whistleblowers and obliges companies to set up secure channels for whistleblowing.
In this context, we have set up a digital whistleblower platform through which you can submit your reports:
- Via the digital platform: https://kmpackaging.hinweisgeberportal.de/
- Via the hotline (Monday – Friday 8:00-18:30): 0800-1234-205
Please send reports from abroad to the head office +49 221 97668 0 - By mail: hinweisgeberportal@bundesanzeiger.de
- By mail to: Whistleblower Service c/o Bundesanzeiger Verlag GmbH, Amsterdamer Str. 192, 50735 Cologne, Germany.
What information can be reported?
You can use the reporting system to report violations of our Code of Conduct or violations of the law. Including issues related to bribery and corruption, competition law, fraud, financial crime, food safety and quality, harassment or discrimination, international trade controls, protection of personal data, rights and protection of individuals, serious environmental damage or conflicts of interest.
You can do this, regardless of whether you are an employee (including future or former employees) or business partner of KM Packaging. Even if you wish to remain anonymous, you have the option to communicate with us via the platform. Please do not lose the access code you receive when you enter a message. It is not recoverable.
The above contact options can also be used for reports from sites outside Germany.
