Compliance – acting responsibly

As a company that operates globally, we meet high ethical and legal standards. We view compliance as a fundamental requirement so we can be a trustworthy partner for our customers, employees and other stakeholder groups.

Binding standards

We have set out the most important rules and corporate principles on topics such as combating corruption and protection against discrimination in our Code of Conduct.

We must continuously and adequately recognize and assess compliance risks that fall within the scope of our responsibility as a business, and we need to manage them as appropriate to each risk. To do this at Kistler, we implemented a compliance approach based on three pillars. Breaches of laws and our Code of Conduct should be avoided and sanctioned where necessary. By taking this approach, we can meet our responsibilities and avoid damage to Kistler and third parties.

In order to detect any misconduct, there are internal contact points as well as the “SpeakUP Line” reporting system. Reports will be followed up by fair investigations. Transparent responses and clearly defined consequences aim to penalize misconduct and eliminate weak points.
