Help us with your report

Dear whistleblower,

You are on the Ruess whistleblower system on the AdvoWhistle digital platform.

As a company, compliance with applicable regulations and laws at the local, national and international level has always been our top priority. 

Every individual at Ruess, be it the employee, the manager or the management itself, is jointly responsible through his or her actions for growing and maintaining the company culture, which is one of honesty, credibility and value-based action. 

Help us to uncover possible serious breaches of rules, abuses and violations of the law as early as possible, to put a stop to them if necessary and thus to prevent damage. Your tips can help to avert financial losses and damage to our company's public reputation. 

Via AdvoWhistle you have the possibility to have protected communication with our trusted lawyers from the law firm Bette Westenberger Brink.

You can report indications of criminal offences or serious misconduct under "SUBMIT REPORT" - stating your name or completely anonymously - just as you wish. Your identity remains protected in any case. If you give your name, your identity will only be disclosed to Ruess if you, as the person giving the tip, expressly agree to the disclosure of your name. The contents of the report will also only be disclosed if you expressly give your consent to the lawyers of confidence. The lawyers of confidence will treat your tips strictly confidentially.

In the case of anonymous reports, it is not possible to trace the report back to you unless you yourself provide data that would allow conclusions to be drawn about your person. The following reporting form will guide you through the information.

After your report, a protected mailbox will be set up for you, through which the ombudspersons will remain in anonymous dialogue with you. By using the mailbox regularly, you will help to clear up the report in the best possible way.

Thank you for your support!

Attention: This system must not be misused to deliberately provide false or defamatory reports.
