Notification of misconduct

We are constantly working to maintain a open business climate with high ethical standards. Our whistleblowing service provides a platform to report suspected misconduct affecting individuals, our organisation, society or the environment. The whistleblowing service makes it less likely that misconduct will occur and demonstrates our commitment to acting fairly. 

Misconduct means conditions that are in violation of: 

  • laws and regulations  
  • written ethical guidelines in the organisation 
  • ethical norms that are widely supported by society 

Examples of reprehensible behaviour: 

  • danger to life or health 
  • danger to the climate or environment 
  • corruption or other financial crime 
  • unsafe working environment 
  • breach of personal data security 

For more information about misconduct, see the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority's website: https://www.arbeidstilsynet.no/tema/varsling/hva-er-varsling-om-kritikkverdige-forhold/) You play a crucial role in highlighting any concerns regarding misconduct. Providing evidence is not a requirement, so it is important that all reports are made in good faith. You can report cases anonymously via our whistleblowing service, which is managed by an external provider, WhistleB. 

Notify here: https://report.whistleb.com/no/hedinautomotiveas  

The notification service applies to all the Norwegian companies in the Hedin Mobility Group: 

  • Bavaria Norge AS 
  • Hedin Automotive AS 
  • Carstore AS 
  • Porsche Centre Stavanger AS 
  • Porsche Centre Son AS 
  • GS Bildeler AS 
  • BNC Nordic Distribution AS

WhistleB ensures the anonymity of the whistleblower. The service is separate from the organisation's IT environment. WhistleB does not track IP addresses or other data that can identify a person sending a message. Messages are encrypted and can only be decrypted by designated persons. WhistleB cannot decrypt and read messages.
