Compliance

As a globally active company, we bear great responsibility for our employees, our stakeholders, the environment and society. For this reason, it is of the utmost importance to us that we conduct our business with ethical and sustainable practices and act in accordance with these values and in a compliant manner.

Compliance Management System

Greiner's compliance system has been in place since 2012 and covers all divisional companies. Each division has its own Division Compliance Officer; in addition, Local Compliance Officers have been installed at all Greiner locations worldwide. The compliance system is managed by Greiner AG, which has been certified by Austrian Standards in accordance with the ISO 37301 standard, including expansion of the scope of the audit to include data protection. In 2023, Greiner also received certification in accordance with the ISO 37001 standard in the area of anti-corruption. All Greiner companies and production facilities in all divisions are covered by the certification. The certified compliance management system covers the following compliance risk areas Antitrust law, corruption/fraud and data protection.

Code of Conduct

The Greiner Code of Conduct provides guidance and supports us in implementing our corporate goals responsibly and sustainably. It helps to ensure the integrity of our conduct in the long term. Acting ethically, legally and in accordance with the rules is a top priority for Greiner. Compliance with the Code of Conduct is therefore mandatory for all employees and suppliers.
