At TRATON, Compliance means that our employees act in accordance with ethical standards, the law, and internal guidelines – at all times, and everywhere. The binding guideline for acting with integrity is the Code of Conduct.
In addition, the management of risks and opportunities is an inseparable component of overall corporate management and of business processes – and it’s precisely here that we create transparency early on. Because only by doing so can we ensure effective risk-reduction measures on both the management level and the process level.
“Complying with applicable laws and ethical standards is a given for us. Responsibility and integrity are the guiding principles of our actions—and this worldwide.”
Andreas Renschler
Contacts for whistleblowers
Integrity and compliant conduct are of the highest priority for TRATON. In order to guarantee these values and to avoid or minimize potential risks due to regulatory violations, it is crucial that any regulatory violations be identified, clarified, and eliminated internally.
At TRATON, tip-offs regarding potential regulatory violations can be reported through various channels. All tip-offs are received by the TRATON GRC Investigation Office, which ensures that comprehensive and appropriate investigations are carried out.
Speak-up! – the 24/7 TRATON whistleblower portal
To report tip-offs regarding serious regulatory violations in the area of white-collar crime, e.g., regarding corruption, antitrust law, or data protection issues or regarding violations of human rights, employees worldwide can use the Speak up! tool, which is available around the clock in twelve languages.
Whistleblowers can register on Speak up! with their name or a pseudonym of their choice. All tip-offs are treated as confidential.

The Code of Conduct is the mandatory guideline for ethical conduct at TRATON. It applies to all employees – Executive Board members, managers, and each and every employee – alike. The Code of Conduct places the spotlight on the integrity and responsibility of each and every employee – their responsibility as members of society and business partners, as well as responsibility in the workplace. Moreover, it uses practical examples to illustrate how each and every one of us can live up to said responsibility and act with integrity – even in situations of conflict.
TRATON expects its suppliers, business partners, and their employees to act responsibly and to adhere to the laws in force and ethical principles everywhere and at all times. That is why TRATON has issued its own Code of Conduct for Suppliers and Business Partners which prescribes the minimum ethical standards for TRATON suppliers and business partners.
