All of us at Schindler commit to act with the highest ethical standards of professional and personal conduct in our interactions with customers, colleagues, business partners, competitors, regulators, and the communities in which we operate.
Our Compliance Network is integrated into the business structure:
The Group Compliance Officer is located in Switzerland. There is a full-time Regional Compliance Officer in all of our regions: Americas, China, Asia Pacific, Europe, Africa, Middle East & India.
Area Compliance Officers support Corporate Compliance by coordinating compliance processes in several countries: Latin America, South East Asia, Japan & Korea, Middle East & North Africa, Australia & New Zealand.
In each Schindler entity worldwide, a Schindler manager from Legal, Finance, HR or Internal Auditing acts as a Local Compliance Officer. They are the primary local contact, coordinate compliance activities locally, and are the “critical compliance voice” in their market.
Jardine Schindler is a Joint Venture in South East Asia: A local legal counsel acts as Regional Compliance Officer for the 12 countries of the region.
Over 120 Compliance employees worldwide
At Schindler, employees are engaged in Compliance at all levels.
In the mid-90s, we launched a world-wide Compliance Programme. In order to avoid and control compliance risks, a systematic approach is followed in line with our “Three Es” concept.
In the Educate stage of the Compliance Programme activities and processes are implemented which are designed to avoid compliance violations before they occur.
In the Examine stage of the Compliance Programme processes to detect hints of possible violations ("Red Flags") are implemented.
In the Enforce stage of the Compliance Programme suspicions of violations are investigated, corrective actions taken and the responsible employees sanctioned.
Schindler employees around the world shall maintain the highest standards of professional and personal conduct in their relationships with customers, fellow employees, suppliers, competitors, governments and communities.
These Guidelines are an integral part of the Code of Conduct and shall help you understand what the Code means in your daily business practice.
