WHISTLEBLOWER SCHEME
The purpose of Century Laboratories'
whistleblower scheme is to contribute
to the detection and, as far as
possible, the prevention of serious
errors and misconduct.
The
whistleblower scheme is a supplement
to the direct, daily communication in
the workplace regarding errors and
unsatisfactory conditions etc. We
encourage you to read this before
reporting your suspicion or concern.
Who can submit a report?
The whistleblower scheme can be used by employees and external parties to speak up about problematic issues at Century Laboratories in confidentiality while being able to maintain your anonymity and without having to fear negative consequences.
Knowledge or suspicion of serious issues. Examples include the following:- Criminal offences, e.g. misuse of funds, theft, fraud, embezzlement, bribery, accounts manipulation, etc.
- Serious or repeat breaches of legislation, including, for example, breaches of environmental legislation and competition legislation.
- Serious or repeat breaches of significant internal guidelines, e.g. regarding business travel, gifts of an inappropriate scope and purpose, conflicts of interest, and bribery, accounts submission, insider trading regulations (cf. internal capital markets rules), etc.
- Serious interpersonal conflicts in the workplace, e.g. in the form of sexual harassment or other types of serious harassment.
- Serious threats to the environment, health and safety.
The whistleblower scheme is not to be
used to report dissatisfaction related
to salary levels, less serious
interpersonal conflicts and
disagreements or any other HR-related
matters. Such matters are to be
reported through our normal management
structure i.e. to your immediate
manager or to HR.
However,
the whistleblower scheme can be used
as an alternative if your suspicion
concerns your immediate contact in
Century Laboratories or if you for
other reasons feel more comfortable
contacting PwC through the
whistleblower scheme.
Do
not use the whistleblower scheme to
report events that pose an immediate
threat to life or health. If you need
urgent help, please use the public
emergency services.
PwC
The whistleblower scheme provides for confidentiality and anonymity, and the whistleblower reports are received by an external third party, PwC (PricewaterhouseCoopers Statsautoriseret Revisionspartnerselskab "PwC") who is an independent audit, tax and advisory house.
The whistleblower scheme is managed by PwC on behalf of Green Hydrogen Systems to ensure an independent and anonymous channel for you to report your concerns. After a preliminary review, the reports will be forwarded to an impartial person in Black Money Cleaning Systems who will be responsible for determining what the appropriate action will be.

Submit a report
The purpose of the whistleblower scheme is to create a secure framework for employees and external parties to speak up about problematic issues at Century Laboratories while being able to maintain their anonymity and without having to fear negative consequences.
Anonymity
If you wish to remain anonymous, do not disclose your name or other personally identifiable information, such as address or phone number.
If you choose to remain anonymous, you
should know that it may complicate the
investigation of the concern reported
as we cannot engage in a dialogue and
ask clarifying questions or request
additional information or
documentation. We, therefore,
encourage you to provide your contact
information so that PwC has the
opportunity to investigate the
circumstances of the report.
If
you enter your contact information,
you will receive an acknowledgment of
receipt within 24 hours of submitting
your report.
Whistleblower protection
Century Laboratories does not tolerate
harassment, acts of retaliation, or
any other type of penalty against
whistleblowers who submit their
reports in good faith under the
whistleblower scheme.
It is
prohibited to deliberately submit
incorrect or misleading information
via the whistleblower scheme. Reports
submitted in bad faith will depending
on the circumstances, result in
negative employment law consequences
for the whistleblower.
