ComplianceInternal Whistleblowing
The Nippon Chemi-Con Group has an internal whistleblowing system to promote the early detection, correction and prevention of any violations of laws or the "Nippon Chemi-Con Group Charter of Corporate Behavior". This system is available to Nippon Chemi-Con Group full-time employees as well as contract workers, part-time workers, and temporary workers.
In addition to internal consultation desk, the internal whistleblowing system includes a consultation desk operated by a third party under a service contract and a non-disclosure agreement to protect the privacy of people consulting or whistleblowing and ensure that the content of their reports is not disclosed publicly or leaked. The consultation desk is available in various languages and consulting and reporting can be conducted anonymously via e-mail, telephone, postal mail.
(Reports via telephone are only accepted during service hours.)
The Nippon Chemi-Con Group actively inform employees about the establishment of the consultation desk through notification card and the company intranet. Employees can access the consultation desk at any time via the company intranet.
When consultation desk staff receive a consultation or report, they immediately confirm facts and implement corrective action or preventative measures in the event an illegal act is discovered. After completion of investigations and corrective actions, the consultation desk staff conduct regular follow-ups to ensure the consultants or whistleblowers are not subjected to any unfair treatment.
The Nippon Chemi-Con Group ensures that no one will be treated unfairly for consulting or reporting. The personal information of the consultants and whistleblowers, the details of their reports and the results of investigations will be handled as confidential information and will not be disclosed to any third party or used for any purpose other than the processing of the report.
