Policies

Whistleblowing Policy

Coca-Cola HBC is committed to conducting its business with honesty and integrity. We expect all employees, officers, as well as consultants and agents acting in the Company’s name, to maintain high standards and to uphold the values and behaviours in accordance with our Code of Business Conduct.

The purpose of our Whistleblowing Policy is to:

  • encourage reporting, as required under our Code of Business Conduct, of any suspected fraud or corrupt conduct or any other form of inappropriate behaviour including potential violations of our Code of Business Conduct

  • provide guidance on how to raise concerns

  • confirm that confidentiality will be maintained and that genuine concerns reported honestly can be raised without fear of reprisals, even if they turn out to be mistaken.

How to report issues

Reports of potential violations of the Code of Business Conduct may be submitted through an independently operated ‘Speak Up!’ Line.

This service is available in all languages of the territories where the Company operates.

Confidentiality

The Company will take every reasonable precaution to keep the identity of anyone raising a concern confidential.

Protection

The Company is committed to ensuring that an individual is not disadvantaged in any way by validly raising concerns about suspected reportable behaviour. In particular, such a person will not be disadvantaged by dismissal, demotion, loss of benefits, threats, harassment, discrimination or bias.
