FAQ

Our whistleblower system is open to anyone, not just Resch&Frisch employees.

You can report actual or suspected violations of European law as long as you do so in good faith. Reports can be made in the areas according to § 3 Abs 3 HSchG, for other violations please report to the responsible managers.

Reports are processed by Resch&Frisch in compliance with all necessary procedural principles (in particular confidentiality and protection of the whistleblower). Resch&Frisch legal department first independently carries out a plausibility check of the reported information (depending on the reported circumstances and provided that the report contains sufficient information). If necessary, Resch&Frisch can request the support of company departments, such as the compliance department or the human resources department, or other external consultants.

To submit a report, first click on the "submit a new report" button at the top of the introduction page of our online platform.

Select the focus of your report (e.g. corruption, fraud, anti-competitive practices, etc.).
