Corporate Responsibility

Our business practices adhere to the ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact regarding human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption. 

Compliance with legal regulations is our top priority. We can only meet this standard if we identify potential misconduct at an early stage. 

This includes, among other things, economic crimes such as bribery, corruption, fraud, or money laundering; violations of antitrust and competition law; violations of applicable embargo and export regulations; and issues related to human rights, labor law, and the environment.

Our new compliance reporting system, “EthicsPoint - Knorr-Bremse”, provides our employees and external third parties with a confidential channel for reporting potential compliance violations. “EthicsPoint – Reporting Line” also allows for the anonymous reporting of compliance violations.

Your report will be processed in accordance with Knorr-Bremse’s applicable procedural rules, with confidentiality and fairness guaranteed.
