Code of Conduct

Our Code of Conduct is intended to be a guideline for the entire Akkuplanet company and therefore applies equally to all of us. Specifically, it is aimed at top management, executives, all our employees and our suppliers. On the one hand, it represents the demands we place on ourselves to live up to the values and principles set out therein and, at the same time, signals responsible behavior towards our business partners, customers and our employees to the outside world.

Commitment of the company management

Akkuplanet is committed to acting in an economically, socially and environmentally responsible manner. Akkuplanet endeavors to conduct its business competently and on an ethical and moral basis and to compete fairly in all markets in which it operates. This includes compliance with applicable laws and the acceptance of antitrust prohibitions and restrictions on competition. We want to avoid gaining undue advantages over customers, suppliers or competitors.

Compliance with applicable law

We require our managers to familiarize themselves with the laws, regulations and rules that are relevant to their area of responsibility and to comply with them without exception. Our managers in particular bear a high level of responsibility in fulfilling the Code of Conduct. The business practices of our business partners and their suppliers must also comply with the applicable laws. This applies in particular to the import, export and domestic trade in goods, technologies or services, but also to payment and capital transactions. Violations of economic embargoes and trade, import and export control regulations by our business partners must also be ruled out, as must the financing of terrorism.

Bribery and corruption

We do not tolerate any form of corruption or bribery, regardless of whether it damages our company assets or the assets of third parties. We have control mechanisms in place to prevent bribery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, tax evasion and money laundering. Our employees are prohibited from accepting or granting favors of any kind (cash, travel, gifts, etc.) that are linked to an improper advantage (awarding of contracts, project bonuses, etc.). Our business partners are also required to avoid conflicts of interest that involve a risk of corruption.

Implementation and enforcement

Akkuplanet is committed to making the necessary efforts to live up to the principles and values described in this Code of Conduct.
