At Chiesi, we take very seriously our responsibility in relation to transparency and compliance.
To help us to discover and address any possible breach of Chiesi Code of Conduct, violation of laws or regulations or misconduct that could put Chiesi business or reputation at risk or cause damage to third parties, we welcome and encourage the reporting of such matters.
SpeakUp&BeHeard is the internal reporting channel implemented by Chiesi in such regard. This system:
• allows anyone to make a report through a web-based platform (independent from Chiesi IT system and common across the Group, hereinafter “Platform”)
• is structured to warrant the highest standards of protection of confidentiality towards the report, the reporter, the persons involved in the reported conduct (please, check Chiesi Privacy Notice hyperlink).
When reporting through “SpeakUp&BeHeard” (“SU&BH”) you can choose to disclose your personal data or remain anonymous.
Even if you choose to remain anonymous, we suggest that you identify yourself, to be contacted by the Manager if more information is needed to assess the report.
We guarantee that reporters will always be protected.
We are committed to protecting reporters against any form of discrimination and/or retaliation in relation to reports communicated in good faith:
No retaliatory action will be taken against reporters who, at the time of the report, had grounded reasons to believe that the information about the violation reported was true. Protection is extended for the facilitators and linked people.
Reports management
Reports affecting Chiesi Poland or in any case sent – through the Platform – to “Chiesi Poland” will be managed by the Chiesi Poland Compliance Function or/and HR Function (“Manager”).
Reports sent – through the Platform – to “Chiesi Corporate” (based on the information reported within the Operative Instructions) will be managed by the Group Compliance Function of Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A. (“Manager”).
