Whistleblower Protection Act

Dear Partners,

We would like to inform you about a significant change that has been implemented as part of the Whistleblower Protection Act (HinSchG). From 17 December 2023, lawyer Cornelius Matutis will be available as our external reporting office for confidential information. This initiative was launched to promote and protect transparent and honest dealings in our collaboration.

The external reporting centre offers you the opportunity to report possible violations of laws, internal guidelines or other irregularities confidentially and securely. This can be done either anonymously or by revealing your identity, depending on your preferred approach. Attorney Cornelius Matutis is subject to an attorney-client confidentiality obligation to ensure the confidentiality of your data and information.

You have various options for submitting a notification:

  1.  Use the form on the website  Zum Formular

  2. Contact us by e-mail at hinweis@anwaltliche-meldestelle.de

  3. Arrange a personal consultation by telephone or by appointment:  0331 0813284 70

Further information on the Whistleblower Protection Act, the external reporting centre and alternative external reporting channels, including procedures for reporting to European Union institutions, bodies, offices or agencies, can be found on our website: https://anwaltliche-meldestelle.de.

The introduction of the external reporting office represents a further step in our endeavours to create a trusting working environment that focuses on integrity and compliance.

Thank you for your co-operation and commitment!
