WHISTLEBLOWING

In compliance with the provisions of Legislative Decree no. 24/2023, TAV VACUUM FURNACES S.p.A. has established an internal reporting channel to enable the reporting, by the persons entitled to do so, of any violations of national or European Union regulations that harm the public interest or the integrity of the public administration or TAV VACUUM FURNACES S.p.A.

Thanks to the active and responsible participation of employees and third parties, by reporting any behaviour that does not comply with the above-mentioned regulations, TAV VACUUM FURNACES S.p.A. is enabled to promptly take the necessary corrective actions.

Who can report?

Reports, also in anonymous form, can be made by employees, job applicants, consultants, collaborators, volunteers, trainees, shareholders and directors.

How to report and how are reports handled?

The report must be adequately substantiated, i.e. it must contain sufficient details to make it possible to ascertain the facts reported (e.g. elements enabling the identification of the persons involved, the context, place and time period of the facts reported and supporting documentation).

A whistleblowing report can be made through the internal channel, appropriate to guarantee the confidentiality of the identity of the whistleblower, by means of a written communication to be sent by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt to the address of the Whistleblowing Management Officer, as identified in the Whistleblowing Procedure, or orally during a meeting organised with the Whistleblowing Management Officer.

The Whistleblowing Management Officer who receives a report, in whatever form (written or oral), must promptly, and in any case within 7, forward an acknowledgement of receipt to the whistleblower and within 3 months of such notice an acknowledgement will be provided as to the action taken or intended to be taken on the report.

Guarantee of confidentiality and safeguards

The reporter and the persons involved in the report are guaranteed absolute confidentiality. In the case of anonymous reports, it is not possible to trace the identity of the reporter.

No form of personal or professional retaliation on account of the report is allowed or tolerated.

All processing of personal data is carried out in accordance with data protection legislation.
