Promoting a ‘speak up’ culture
Barco wants to actively promote a genuine ‘speak up’ culture where ethical questions or dilemmas can be raised without fear of retaliation. Questions and/or concerns can also be communicated via the Ethics mailbox (ethics@barco.com).
Ethics helpline (whistleblower reports)
In line with the EU Whistleblowers’ directive, Barco has set up a whistleblower reporting tool through the assistance of an external service provider: ethics.barco.com. You, just like any supplier, contractor, customer, or even third party can use this tool to reach out to the company and (anonymously) report any violation or suspected violation of any applicable laws and regulations or the Code of Ethics. You will receive a confirmation of receipt of your report within 7 days. Within 3 months after the confirmation of receipt, you will receive feedback on your report.
