NCAB Group whistleblower function
If employees of NCAB Group or other stakeholders discover serious irregularities or misconceptions that violate our Code of Conduct, we want them to feel confident about reporting this. We have thus set up a whistle blower function, involving an external party to whom employees can turn. Their issue is then anonymous and passed on to the NCAB Group’s investigative function.
