About PTS

Whistleblowing

Contact us if you suspect serious violations of the law or regulations in the areas of product safety and product compliance, protection of privacy and personal data, or security of network and information systems.

Our responsibility in each area is limited to the part covered by our supervisory responsibility.

You can report misconduct if you have been exposed to or obtained information about misconduct in a work-related context.

You cannot be held liable for breach of confidentiality if you have a good reason to believe that your reporting is necessary to reveal misconduct.

However, it does not give you the right to disclose documents or breach certain regulations that limits the rights to publish information according to the Freedom of the Press Act and the Fundamental Law on Freedom of Expression.

If you would like to report a suspected breach of a regulation, use one of the following channels:

Please note that we do not accept reports sent by e-mail, neither do we communicate by email regarding whistleblowers.

Information about you

As a whistleblower, you are entitled to be anonymous if you so choose. PTS will not require you to reveal your identity.

The investigator will provide feedback on the conclusions within a reasonable timeframe, which will not exceed three months. If there are special reasons, it may take up to six months.
