You must speak if you believe that one or more of the following has happened or could happen.‍

• Any criminal activity
• Bribery
  
• Corruption
  
• Financial fraud or mismanagement
  
• Failure to comply with any legal or professional obligation or regulatory requirements
  
• Danger to health and safety
• Damage to the environment
• Conduct which is likely to damage our reputation
• Actions which are intended to hide any of the above

‍

‍
We treat all matters raised confidentially. This means that all information on the reported matter, including the
identity of individuals involved, will only be shared where necessary with relevant individuals who are involved
in investigating the matter. Anyone raising any concern in good faith, regardless of whether that concern is found
to be true, will not suffer adverse consequences.
