Through anti-corruption risk assessment, we have identified the functions that are exposed to the highest risk in respect of corruption and bribery. These, among others, include employees that are in direct contact with public officials, for instance by participating in negotiations for public tenders on Demant’s behalf.

Anti-retaliation is a part of our Whistleblower Policy. We are committed to ensuring that there will be no discriminatory or retaliatory action against any employee or third party who in good faith raises a concern through the whistleblower hotline. Our anti-retaliation efforts comply with Directive (EU) 2019/1937.
