To IDÉ House of Brands' stakeholders

We want your help in fighting corruption, corporate crime, unacceptable behavior, and violations of IDÉ House of Brands Code of Conduct. All notifications of violations are important, and help to secure partners and employees, improve our working environment, prevent financial loss and damage our reputation. 

To notify is about telling if something is not as it should be and is an important tool for being able to uncover and improve matters worthy of criticism. This notification has great value for IDÉ and helps us be the work place we want to be. 

At IDÉ House of Brands, we rely on our employees, partners, customers and whoever feel “faul play” to report if they become aware of matters worthy of criticism. Employees have the right and the responsibility to raise concerns when detected. External parties are also encouraged to report on concerns. 

To ensure confidentiality and security in the process, we use an independent third party, BDO AS, to operate our whistleblowing channel. Reports are registered in a secure system where both the whistleblower and case handlers can conduct anonymous dialogue. BDO is responsible for the handling and follow-up of all submitted cases, while we as a company have access to the reports registered in the system. The whistleblowing channel allows for anonymous reporting. The whistleblower can choose to remain anonymous and conduct a safe and confidential dialogue through the system without providing their name or contact information.

We have the following core principles for how to handle reported concerns.  

• All reports shall be taken seriously. 
• All reports shall be processed in a timely manner – Within 7 days after reported. 
• Anonymous reporting shall be processed.  
• Anonymous sources may be as valuable as open sources.  
• All reports are processed in a confidential manner.  
• The whistleblowing channel should be used without fear of consequences or retaliation.  
• The whistleblower shall, whenever possible, receive confirmation once the report has been received.  
• The whistleblower shall, whenever possible, receive timely feedback once the report has been processed.  

Thank you for helping us making IDÉ House of Brands to an even better plae to work!
