Compliance

The corporate compliance function ensures adherence to legal, regulatory and internal requirements, as well as to the Group’s ethical standards. The function emphasizes preventative measures, training, education and consulting.

In order to evaluate its business partners, Oerlikon has implemented an Integrity Due Diligence (IDD) process. Each business unit has a specially trained person who is responsible for confirming that current and potential business partners have good reputations and comply with Oerlikon’s ethical standards. We have reduced the risk of compliance breaches by working with our business partners and through the commitment of these partners to our Code of Conduct.

The compliance program is based on three pillars

  • Prevention through policies, directives, training, Code of Conduct, risk assessments, maturity assessments, compliance groups, internal control, metric systems and Q&As at all employee meetings.
  • Early detection: whistle-blowing hotline, continuous compliance reviews, controls and internal audits, allegation management process.
  • Response: disciplinary action on compliance breaches, process adaptation, resolution plans, remediation of internal control system, revision of policies.
