EthicsLine is our whistleblower system and main mechanism for identifying, reporting, and investigating concerns, promptly, independently and objectively as defined in the EthicsLine Policy. It accommodates both internal and external stakeholders. It allows employees and business partners to report suspected violations of Vestas Codes of Conduct, applicable laws, and Vestas policies. Hosted on a secure external platform, it ensures anonymity and protection from repercussion. The platform is accessible publicly at our corporate website, the Vestas Compliance app, our intranet, and by phone.

Vestas has established Global and Regional Compliance Programmes which outline how Vestas works with Anti-Bribery & Corruption (ABC) inspired by the six principles in the UK Bribery Act 2010. The programmes are comprised of five pillars: 'Programme Governance,' 'Learning & Awareness' and 'Culture & Behaviour' which aim at preventing misconduct while 'Monitoring & Audit' and 'EthicsLine' are used to prevent, detect and manage misconduct.
