Integrity & Compliance

Acting with integrity, responsibility and lawful conduct is an integral part of our corporate culture at CARIAD. They form the basis for our actions.

We take responsibility – as a member of society, as a business partner and in the workplace

 

Compliance

At CARIAD, we use a Compliance Management System (CMS) in accordance with internationally recognized standards.

Our CMS reflects the principles, measures, processes and structures that must be permanently established and continuously improved in order to comply with laws and counteract systematic misconduct.

 

Whistleblower

Complying with statutory regulations and internal rules, and the principles laid down in our Code of Conduct and the Code of Conduct for Business Partners Business Partners CoC , has top priority at CARIAD. The success of our company is based on Integrity and Compliance. To meet these standards, it is important to learn of potential employee or supplier misconduct and to put a stop to it. Therefore, we entrusted the Volkswagen Group of America to operate an independent, impartial, and confidential Whistleblower System on our behalf.

If anyone suspects a violation of the Code of Conduct or any other misconduct in our work environment at CARIAD Inc., you can report by either calling the hotline anonymously, mailing in a concern, or emailing.

You can access the whistleblower system through the following channels:

Email: VWGoACorporateCompliance@vw.com

Phone: +1-888-228-7317 (available 24/7)

Website: Volkswagen Group Whistleblower System

By Mail: Attn: Compliance, 2200 Ferdinand Porsche Dr, Herndon, VA 20171 USA

The Whistleblower System provides points of contact for reporting violations of regulations in connection with CARIAD Inc. When a violation occurs at CARIAD Inc. the Chief Compliance and Ethics Officer at VWGoA immediately contacts the appropriate internal and external parties for triaging complaints/ violations. This includes escalating specific issues to the Volkswagen AG in Germany for any violations regarding human rights and environmental issues. In addition, experienced external lawyers act as neutral mediators (ombudspersons) for us. They are tasked with receiving reports and forwarding the information – anonymously, if requested – to our whistleblower system for further processing.

The whistleblower system is committed to protecting the Whistleblower and the individual affected. We do not tolerate retaliation of or pressure on whistleblowers. The individuals affected are presumed innocent until convicted of an offense.

Integrity

For us, setting an example of integrity means doing the right thing in our professional environment out of our own conviction.

Integrity, transparency and fairness are crucial to creating credibility and trust in business transactions. We therefore attach particular importance to consistently implementing and clearly communicating the legal framework, internal Group guidelines and corporate values.
