COMPLIANCE FUNCTION

Our Group Ethics and Compliance functions play a critical role in designing and maintaining our robust compliance program.

Helsinn’s Compliance Program includes:

  • Compliance Officers and Business Ethics Board charged with the responsibility for operating and monitoring the Compliance Program 
  • Regular education and training programs for applicable employees 
  • A reporting process to collect concerns and ask questions 
  • Policies and procedures to protect the anonymity of employees who raise concerns (as applicable) and to prohibit any form of retaliation against them 
  • Use of audits and routine monitoring activities to monitor compliance and identify and address risks 
  • Enforcement of compliance obligations through policies that include corrective measures or penalties for non-compliant behaviors 
  • Mechanisms to promptly and properly investigate and respond to reports of non-compliance, including processes to initiate corrective measures and to report offenses to the relevant authorities where appropriate.
