It applies globally to all employees, managers, officers, directors, and employees of joint ventures or entities in which we have a majority ownership interest or exercise effective control.

We strongly condemn all discrimination based on age, disability, ethnicity, family status, race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, social origin or other personal characteristics. We do not tolerate any kind of harassment and abusive behavior, and we train our employees on recognizing and reporting them. Our employees are encouraged and trained to report any issues or concerns by using our ethical reporting channels. These channels also include channels ensuring anonymity of reporters. We investigate all reports according to our procedures and decide on appropriate disciplinary and remedial measures in a structured process.
