Cellnex adopts a zero-tolerance policy for retaliation. The company safeguards whistleblowers by ensuring that no individual who reports concerns in good faith will face retaliation. If any whistleblower perceives that they have been subjected to retaliation, they are encouraged to report this immediately, and the company will take appropriate action to investigate and address the issue. All whistleblowers are guaranteed confidentiality and protection in line with applicable laws, including the EU Whistleblower Directive (2019/1937).

The Committee of Ethics and Compliance (CEC), as an independent body within Cellnex, is entitled to initiate investigations into potential violations of the company’s policies. The CEC’s independence is critical for maintaining impartiality, ensuring that investigations are conducted objectively without interference from the management chain involved in the matter.
