Thank you for your review. We are sorry that you feel that way about us. Givaudan is committed to providing a working environment that is based on mutual respect among employees and is free from harassment. We have set Principles of Conduct to which every employee is expected to adhere (https://www.givaudan.com/our-company/corporate-governance/principles-of-conduct). Also available is our Compliance Helpline. While our culture of integrity and open communi-cations enable employees to address any concerns directly to their line manager, the Compliance Helpline is designed to provide a ‘last resort’ for those cases in which an employee does not feel able to speak out.
