At the same time, this system regulates the personal liability of the company’s management and its employees. For achieving this goal, we have implemented a compliance program that includes a variety of preventive measures, such as risk assessments, trainings and counseling. Violation of legal provisions or internal regulations, especially in matters of corruption, may be notified to the Compliance Officer, through an information system valid at level of concern. It accepts notifications from any employee of the REWE Group or third parties arguing suspicions of such violations.
