We have commissioned the law firm PARK | Wirtschaftsstrafrecht., in this case Dr. Tobias Eggers, attorney-at-law, to set up and operate this whistleblowing system and to act as the authorized body for receiving reports. As the law stipulates that the investigation of a whistleblower must be carried out by an internal person of trust in accordance with the Polish Act of June 14, 2024 on the Protection of Whistleblowers (Whistleblower Protection Act), we have appointed an employee as this person of trust.
You can submit information via this authorized body if you receive information about compliance violations, in particular criminal offences or administrative offences, in connection with your professional activities or in the run-up to professional activities.
Information on human rights or environmental risks or violations of human rights or environmental obligations can be submitted via the electronic reporting channel of Woolworth GmbH. You can access this via the link provided here.
The reports can be submitted by the following persons with a connection to Woolworth Polska sp. z o.o., among others: Employee, temporary employee, business partner, trainee, apprentice and other persons referred to in Article 4(1) of the Whistleblower Protection Act.
A report may also be submitted by a person who has received information about a violation of the law before the establishment or after the termination of an employment relationship or other legal relationship that forms the basis for the provision of work or services or the performance of functions at Woolworth Polska sp. z o.o.
If you submit a report via our whistleblower system, it will be received directly and exclusively by the authorized body.
