Our confidential whistleblower protection system

We, travelite GmbH + Co KG (travelite), value honesty, integrity and transparency. We consider compliance with rules of conduct and regulations to be a matter of course. We therefore welcome any support in uncovering and remedying any violations and abuses in order to enable us to meet our standards in the long term and to help us protect our company and our entire environment.

Whistleblower Protection Act: What do I need to know?

The recently introduced Whistleblower Protection Act (HinSchG) ensures that employees, business partners and customers can uncover irregularities in companies and are legally protected from disadvantages. travelite has commissioned AGA Service GmbH to provide whistleblowers with various simple and secure ways of making contact. To ensure that reports can be made confidentially, they are not forwarded directly to travelite. Legal experts from the reporting centre process each report and discuss it with travelite.

What can or must I report?
The reporting centre is a service for employees, business partners and customers. If you observe or learn of something in the company that may be a criminal offence or subject to a fine, you can contact the reporting office directly. The report will be examined and processed confidentially. You yourself should not suffer any disadvantage as a result of the report.

I would like to report something: How should I prepare?

The more precise your report is, the better it can be processed. The following questions will help you prepare:

  • What happened?
  • Please describe the incident/problem. 
  • When and where (company location or area) did it happen?
  • How did you find out about it? Are you involved?
  • Is there any evidence? 
  • Have you already done something or spoken to someone?
If you call, e-mail or write a letter to the Reporting Centre, please be sure to name the company concerned.
