How we operate
WE RECEIVE AND ASSESS
the situations reported by the various parties, ensuring confidentiality and an open channel of communication to answer any questions related to the situation.
WE MEDIATE AND RESPOND TO
situations that are reported and based on obtained information, working together with the relevant internal departments and areas to issue our opinion.
WE SHARE AND RECOMMEND
opportunities for improvement and business indicators, encouraging internal discussions on the matter and share some of the best international practices.
We guarantee total confidentiality in the handling of all situations reported.
What we don’t do
We reserve the right to not respond to or interact with parties who are clearly acting in bad faith, submit inappropriate content, or who submit reports based on rationale that is clearly insufficient to be assessed.
We do not handle situations that fall outside the scope of our activity and mission.
