Compliance – Reporting Channels
Reporting offices pursuant to German Whistleblower Protection Act
Through quality, reliability and professionalism, Hamburg Airport has established a strong reputation that extends well beyond the borders of northern Germany.
The foundation for this impeccable standing is built on our strong commitment, the high ethical standards we impose on ourselves and our business partners, and on responsible corporate leadership. We are committed to open, transparent and fair dealings throughout our day-to-day business operations.
In this context, both Flughafen Hamburg Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung and its majority holdings comply with the EU Whistleblower Protection Directive for the protection of persons reporting breaches of European Union law and the national Whistleblower Protection Act (“Hinweisgeberschutzgesetz”).
The EU Whistleblower Protection Directive and in particular the Whistleblower Protection Act serve to protect persons (e.g. from employment law sanctions) insofar as these persons have obtained information of (legal) breaches in the context of their employment activity and have reported or exposed these breaches.
Reports may be made to the Compliance Board either
- in writing by posting a report in one of the Compliance Postboxes set aside for this purpose (see postbox map) or
- by email to compliance-board@ham.airport.de or
- by telephoning +49 40 5075 2922 (answering machine).
Reports received, and especially the identity of persons making such reports, will be treated confidentially! All reports will be individually investigated by members of the Compliance Board, who are bound by a duty of confidentiality.
