Whistleblowing

Internal Whistleblowing System

In accordance with the Whistleblower Protection Act, ARTIN, spol. s r.o., ID No.: 255 31 115, with its registered office at Purkyňova 670/142, Brno, 612 00, is required to maintain an internal reporting system.

If you witness an incident or wish to report a matter concerning, for example:

  1. a criminal offense

  2. A violation of legal obligations under the Act on Income Tax for Legal Entities

  3. A violation of consumer protection regulations

  4. A violation of personal data protection or privacy

  5. A violation of environmental protection regulations

  6. Corruption or any conduct that endangers human health or the environment, or involves inappropriate behavior in the workplace,

and for whatever reason you do not wish to or cannot use our standard channels, you have the option to file a report through the designated contact, Gabriela Bako. You can send your report to the designated contact using the form available on this internal Notion page, to the email address gabriela.bako@artin.eu, or by mail to Purkyňova 670/142, Brno-Medlánky, 621 00, Czech Republic. In addition, you may file a report verbally by calling the designated contact person at +420 733 608 437 or schedule a personal meeting for this purpose. You may also report the matter to the Ministry of Justice of the Czech Republic.

Only the designated person, who meets the legal requirements, will have access to the information in your report and will investigate it further. Your anonymity will be protected from all others. No retaliatory measures will be taken against you based on your report.

The designated person will notify you of the receipt of your report within 7 days of receiving it.

Please note that we do not accept reports from individuals who are not employed by us, do not work for us as volunteers, and are not participating in an internship or work experience program with us.

Please use this form to report truly serious information, especially if you feel threatened by submitting a non-anonymous report. Do not use it for entertainment or out of curiosity, as this would place an administrative and emotional burden on the designated person. Thank you for your cooperation.

Upon receipt of the report:

  • The designated person will notify the reporter that the report has been received within seven days.

  • The designated person will form an independent group to investigate the reported matter and propose a solution (the reporter remains anonymous).

  • The designated person is required to inform the reporter of the resolution within 30 days of receiving the report.

  • The designated person retains all reports and their resolutions in electronic form (on a non-public page on the Notion portal) for a period of five years.
