HELLA commits to laws and internal rules. However, compliance at HELLA is more than that. It also means acting with integrity and as a role model. Compliance is an essential part of HELLA’s corporate culture and is the foundation to sustain successful business activities.
It is HELLA’s ambition that all employees adhere to the applicable laws and internal rules and that they act with integrity. To ensure compliant behavior at HELLA worldwide, we have established a group-wide compliance organization and compliance system. The objective is to effectively incorporate compliance into our business and processes to prevent misconduct.
The Compliance Office coordinates the compliance organization and system, including direct responsibilities for anti-trust and anti-corruption. Additional compliance specialist departments independently manage other compliance topics such as information security, environment, health and safety or product safety. The responsibilities are clearly structured and defined.
The HELLA Code of Conduct contains the basic rules of behavior. It guides us in our daily work with colleagues, customers, suppliers, other business partners and third parties. It is binding for all employees worldwide. HELLA’s Supplier Code of Conduct is an extension of this effort. It seeks to ensure that our suppliers uphold the same key standards.
