Whistleblowing systems are introduced to strengthen the Good Corporate Governance implementation and to provide opportunities to all of the Company’s personnel and other stakeholders to be able to submit reports on indications of a violation of applicable ethical values, based on reliable evidence and with the goodwill.

The Company’s management believes in creating a transparent culture, open and honest communication. Therefore, the Company’s personnel and all stakeholders are encouraged to speak through this independent system whenever they see ethical or compliance violations.

By using the system, the Company’s personnel or stakeholders who report the violation will be given protection, both in terms of identity confidentiality or any possible retaliation by the reported party.

Whistleblower’s Protection

By using the system, the Company’s personnel or stakeholders who report the violation will be given protection, both in terms of identity confidentiality or any possible retaliation by the reported party.
