The term ‘corporate compliance’ refers to rule-consistent conduct within a company. These rules can be stipulated in legislation but can also be defined by way of in-house rules of conduct prescribed by the company. The Code of Conduct applies at CWS. Andrea Szrama, Head of Corporate Legal at CWS, explains why compliance is important: “It is essential that every single employee has the same understanding of internal and external cooperation. Our customer is also an important element of this common consideration: How do we want to deal with our customers? The answer is quite simple: fairly and transparently.”

If something is wrong, all employees can contact the local compliance manager or our anonymous helpline and share their concerns. The aim is for each and every one of us to take the issue seriously, and personally foster and encourage rule-consistent conduct in the interests not only of the company but also of all its employees.
