Background
Teamtailor is committed to offering all team-members a safe and enjoyable place to work and to be compliant with rules and regulations in the markets where we operate.
Teamtailor is subject to the EU Whistleblowing Directive and the Swedish Act on the protection of persons reporting misconduct, which provides and promotes a safe and secure way for employees to speak up about misconduct in their work environment. To meet this requirement, we use our own whistleblowing tool offered in Aboard HR 🚀
The purpose of our whistleblowing function is to enable employees and other individuals with a professional connection to Teamtailor to report misconduct within our operations, on an anonymous basis.
You are protected by these laws, meaning that Teamtailor is not allowed to take any form of reprisal or obstructive action against reporting, such as termination, changes in job responsibilities, threats or discrimination. Furthermore, the information provided by the reporting individual is protected by confidentiality 🔐
