The EU Whistleblower Directive has been incorporated into Danish law and GN has established a whistleblower hotline, the GN Alertline, and implemented a Non-Retaliation Policy that ensures the protection of whistleblowers. The GN Alertline is a secure and confidential reporting tool hosted by an independent third party. This hotline is available to all employees and external stakeholders and can be accessed on the GN Group website via www.gn.com/whistleblower and for employees also via GN’s intranet. Concerns can be submitted verbally and in writing. The Group Business Ethics & Compliance department serves as GN’s designated investigation unit in compliance with the Danish whistleblower law.

GN has not registered any convictions and fines related to violation of anti-corruption or anti-bribery laws.
