Whistleblower & Grievance

We strongly encourage you always to raise concerns and questions if you become aware of anything that you believe might be in breach of CellMark’s Code of Conduct or just something that does not feel right.  All employees have an obligation to speak up if there is something that genuinely worries you to protect yourself, your colleagues and CellMark.

Our Whistleblowing principles are stated in our Code of Conduct (internal reporting) and Code of Conduct for Business Partners (external parties)

The principles guiding our approach to speaking up and whistleblowing

Expectation to raise concerns & cooperate

As a member of CellMark you are expected to report any misconduct or incident that has (or may have) or is likely to occur whenever you suspect or receive information about it.

Similarly, members of CellMark, and business partners to the group (through the provisions in the Code of Conduct for Business Partners), must remain truthful and cooperative in any potential involvement in an internal investigation.

No retaliation

​​​​​​​Retaliation against any employee who reports a concern in good faith about illegal or unethical conduct will not be tolerated and will be subject to disciplinary action.

Investigation of the reports

All whistleblowing reports are taken seriously and will be assessed and, when relevant, investigated according to the principles of fairness and confidentiality towards all involved parties.

Confidentiality of the reports

Without restricting any right under applicable law, information linked to a whistleblowing report will be kept strictly confidential and be shared on a strict need to know basis.

Processing of personal data

Any personal data collected and used in connection with a report will be processed in-line with applicable legislation.
