Anonymity

Anonymous reports are accepted and handled on equal terms with any other report.

C

Protection from retaliation

Any retaliatory action against you because of a report is prohibited and null under the law.

D

Burden of proof

In case of retaliation, the burden of proving otherwise falls on the employer, not on you.

Protection from retaliation: If you believe you have been subjected to retaliation, the request for protection is submitted to ILDKPKI, the competent authority under Article 22 of Law No. 96/2025. 96/2025.

Independence of the mechanism

The whistleblowing mechanism is managed by an independent responsible unit — an external, licensed third party (OnLawOffice — Av. Orjon Nallbati) — in accordance with Article 14/8 of the Law and the criteria of point 20 of Instruction No. 1/2026. This independence guarantees impartial handling of every report, even where it concerns the Company’s management. In conflict-of-interest cases an independent substitute is designated. The whistleblower always retains the right to address ILDKPKI.
