Our Whistleblowing System
Compliance with legal regulations and internal rules as well as the principles set out in our Code of Conduct and the Code of Conduct for Business Partners is a top priority at Porsche Chile. Our company's success is built on integrity and compliance.
It is important to be aware of possible misconduct by employees or suppliers and put an end to it. We therefore entrust the Porsche Investigation Office with operating an independent, impartial and confidential Whistleblowing System on our behalf.
A key pillar of our Complaints System is the principle of procedural fairness. It also ensures the greatest possible protection for whistleblowers, Involved Persons and employees who contribute to the investigation of allegations of misconduct. This also includes providing opportunities for whistleblowing and anonymous communications. We make sure that we do not take any steps to identify anonymous whistleblowers, that they do not misuse our Whistleblowing System. Retaliation against whistleblowers or individuals who contribute to investigations at Porsche Chile will not be tolerated. The persons involved are presumed innocent until the infraction is proven. Investigations will be conducted with the utmost confidentiality. The information will be processed in a fair, prompt and protected process.
How do we process your complaint?
Qualified and experienced personnel of the Investigation Office will thoroughly examine every complaint of possible misconduct by an employee of the Volkswagen Group and will follow up systematically. First, you will receive a confirmation of receipt. The Bureau of Investigation will then evaluate your complaint. This includes collecting data, in particular from the whistleblower. Only if this initial assessment shows indications of a violation will an investigation be initiated by a respective Investigation Unit. The results of the investigation will then be evaluated by the Office of Investigation and action will be recommended as appropriate. You will be provided with information on the status* and outcome of the procedure without undue delay.
Potential violations of the Code of Conduct for Business Partners by suppliers, including serious risks and violations of human rights and the environment by direct and indirect suppliers, may also be reported to the Office of Investigation, as well as complaints requiring immediate action. The Investigation Office will inform the responsible departments, who will carry out the corresponding procedures. This includes in particular taking the necessary measures to minimize or put an end to violations and/or risks.
