Guidelines for Use
- When reporting to the Compliance Hotline, please provide as much as much specific information as possible in writing, including who, when, where, how, and what was done. Please note that reportable matters are limited to violations of applicable laws, regulation and internal rules, and unethical conduct with respect to the KAKEN Group’s business activities.
- If you have documents or evidence relating to the reported matter, we kindly request your cooperation in submitting them along with your report.
- We accept whistleblowing reports via mail. If you prefer to use telephone or email for subsequent communications, please include your phone number or e-mail in your initial report.
- We accept anonymous reports; however, this may make subsequent communication difficult and could limit our ability to conduct a thorough fact-finding investigation.
- We do not accept the use of the Compliance Hotline for false reports, defamation of the KAKEN Group or any third parties, business interference, or any other improper purposes.
