It is a channel for employees to allow reporting on violations of the Employee Code of Conduct and Code of Ethics without concern over receiving disadvantages from having the reporter’s identity disclosed.
Zinus operates the Whistleblowing Policy to strengthen preemptive measures and manage the company in a sound and healthy manner.
What to Report
Financial incident and any attempts to hide it (embezzlement, breach of duty)
Any matters that are against the company standard including but not limited to Employee Code of Conduct and Code of Ethics (Bribery, unfair trade, inappropriate use of company expenses, etc.)
Any behaviors that bring unjust benefit using one’s influence or deliberately incur losses to the company
Any misconducts regarding inappropriate use of company asset and information or unjust enrichment
Any actions or attitudes that undermine sound and healthy corporate culture (verbal abuse, sexual harassment, negligence, influence peddling, and being disrespectful in the workplace, etc.)
Any actions that undermine Zinus’ brand value or incur losses by working in unlawful and unjust manner
Other circumstances in which what is stated above are likely to occur
Protection of the Reporter (Whistleblower)
Under the Whistleblowing, a dedicated internal controller directly receives the report, conducts investigation and announces the overall results and makes sure the identity of the whistleblower is kept confidential.
There can be compensation for reporting the misconduct if it brings economic profit or prevents losses.
If an individual reports his/her wrongdoings, he/she may be exempt from liabilities.
False and defamatory accusations without evidence may be subject to punishment.
