Ethics Channel: Policies and Practices
Ethics and Practices Overview
At Hermanos Sánchez Lafuente®, S.A. We firmly believe in the importance of promoting a safe, ethical, equal and trusting environment for all our employees, customers and partners in general. For this reason, we have implemented a solid ethics channel. A channel through which to report possible violations or irregularities in the organization, as described in Spanish Law 2/2023, of February 20, which regulates the protection of persons who report violations of regulations and the fight against corruption.
WHAT FACTS CAN BE REPORTED?
You can use the Ethical Channel to report any events that you believe may constitute a violation of legal regulations, the Code of Ethics or current internal regulations, such as:
- Conduct related to fraud and corruption.
- Behavior in relation to safety, health and hygiene at work.
- Discrimination and harassment in the workplace.
- Conduct related to information security, data protection and securities markets.
- Anti-competitive practices.
- Behavior that violates human rights or damages the environment.
- Other possible criminal or administrative violations.
MAIN FEATURES:
Confidentiality: We understand that confidentiality is essential to encourage people to make complaints. We ensure absolute confidentiality throughout the entire process and protect the identity of the complainant to the extent permitted by law. The option of anonymous reporting is included.
Impartial investigation process: Once a complaint is filed, our team of experts will investigate the matter thoroughly, objectively and carefully in accordance with internal regulations and applicable laws. Throughout the entire process, the rights of those involved, the presumption of innocence, are respected.
Protection from Retaliation: We will not tolerate any form of retaliation against bona fide whistleblowers. We are committed to protecting the rights and integrity of those who dare to report irregularities. We will take appropriate disciplinary action against anyone who retaliates against a whistleblower.
Solution and Follow-up Action: Once the investigation is complete, we will take the necessary actions to resolve the identified issue and, where possible, take corrective action to prevent future violations. In addition, we are committed to keeping the complainant informed of the progress and resolution of their complaint whenever possible and permitted by law.
