Online reporting platform of the Caritasverband für die Diözese Osnabrück e.V. and affiliated member institutions for violations under the Whistleblower Protection Act.
Dear colleagues,
the Caritas Association for the Diocese of Osnabrück e.V. has set up a web-based platform for the confidential reporting of violations within its own association and its affiliated member facilities. In order to fulfill our responsibility for lawful corporate governance, violations of the law are to be reported to our ombudspersons via this online reporting portal. In this way, we would also like to encourage all employees and temporary workers in our company who perform their work honestly and in accordance with the law to raise the issue of unfair, unlawful and unethical conduct.
You can report a violation by stating your name. Such a report will be accepted by ombudspersons appointed by us, who are experienced external lawyers committed to absolute confidentiality. If requested, our ombudspersons will treat your inquiry in the strictest confidence and will first examine on their own responsibility whether a relevant violation under the standards of the Whistleblower Protection Act exists at all or appears plausible. Our ombudspersons will then clarify the facts together with the person of trust appointed by our company and provide you with feedback on what has become of your report.
- Violations that are punishable by law.
- Violations that are subject to fines, insofar as the provision serves to protect life, limb or health or to protect the rights of employees or their representative bodies.
- Other violations within the meaning of Section 2 (1) No. 3 HinSchG These include in particular: Violations of legal provisions to combat money laundering and terrorist financing, violations of product safety and conformity, violations of environmental protection, violations of regulations on consumer rights and consumer protection, violations of privacy in electronic communications or the protection of personal data, violations of security in IT technology, violations of regulations on the auditing of companies and violations of accounting, including the bookkeeping of companies.
