Home About us Sustainability Compliance Compliance “Compliance is a must, not an option.” This is the guiding principle behind SCHOTT’s compliance program. However, compliance means more to us than simply adhering to rules and laws. Since the trust of our employees and business partners in our company and products is our most valuable asset, our task is to maintain this trust through integrity. Our core values Our compliance management system is called Compliance@SCHOTT, and comprises the SCHOTT Code of Conduct, the corporate guidelines and measures derived from it, and the compliance organization responsible for enforcing it. Our compliance program aims to identify potential risks at an early stage and initiate suitable countermeasures if necessary. All employees around the world receive advice and training on compliance issues and are informed of our internal regulations and applicable statutory provisions. This makes compliance an integral part of every business process. SCHOTT AG established the Compliance Office as a central corporate function to ensure this is achieved during our everyday work. The main responsibilities of the Compliance Office include anti-corruption, antitrust, data and information protection, export control, money laundering prevention, and business partner compliance management. The Compliance Office is supported by regional compliance representatives in the United States and Asia, as well as decentralized compliance representatives in SCHOTT units and locations worldwide. SCHOTT has also had an Integrity Helpline in place since 2011. 1. Code of Conduct 2. Anti-Corruption 3. Antitrust 4. Data Protection 5. Information Protection 6. Export Control 7.
