ESM has introduced a whistleblower system that gives you the opportunity to inform us about violations of legal regulations and/or compliance rules and hereby contribute to their detection.
Meeting legal requirements and internal compliance rules is a top priority for ESM and is accordingly embedded in our corporate policy. ESM is committed to identifying violations as soon as possible to initiate appropriate countermeasures and avert possible damage to customers, employees, business partners, and ESM as a company.
If you have concrete and well-founded indications of legal violations or infringements of rules at ESM or suspect such violations, you have the following options for contacting us:
- Directly with your responsible contact person or our headquarters by telephone at +49 (0) 6252 6893-0 or by e-mail to info@esm-gmbh.de.
- Via our external whistleblower portal:

Information can be submitted by ESM employees as well as by third parties.
If desired, you can submit your tip anonymously. Please include as many details as possible and, if available, documents that support your suspicions. After all, your tip can only have an impact if it leads to sufficiently concrete investigative approaches and possibilities of providing evidence.
We will investigate all tips. In connection with their processing, we ensure the highest level of confidentiality in dealing with the whistleblower. This also applies to any employees affected by an allegation.
Please note that our whistleblowing system is not intended for complaints. If you are not satisfied with our products or service, please approach your contact person or our headquarters directly by phone at +49 (0) 6252 6893-0 or by e-mail at info@esm-gmbh.de.
