The Porsche Whistleblower System

Whistleblowing program: A gloved hand placing a Porsche crest into a protected box.

Complying with statutory regulations and internal rules, and the Code of Conduct, has top priority at Porsche. The success of our company is based on Integrity and Compliance. To meet these standards, it is important to learn of potential employee misconduct and to put a stop to it. Porsche's Whistleblower System processes incoming tips independently and confidentially.

A key pillar of the Whistleblower System is the principle of procedural fairness. It also provides protection for whistleblowers, persons implicated and employees contributing to the investigation of reported misconduct.

This also includes offering opportunities for anonymous reporting and communication. Furthermore, Porsche does not tolerate any discrimination against whistleblowers or anyone who contributes to investigations at Porsche.

Persons implicated are presumed innocent until the violation is proven. Investigations will, to the maximum extent permitted by law be conducted with the utmost confidentiality.

How do we process your report?

After the submission of a tip, you will get a confirmation of the receipt and then your report will be assessed. If further information is required, we will contact you. We therefore ask you to leave a contact option even if you submit a report anonymously (e.g. via the online reporting channel — see below).

Only if this initial evaluation shows grounds for suspicion of a violation will an investigation will be started. Afterwards, the results of the investigation will be assessed and appropriate measures will be taken.

Do you have any concern or feedback regarding a Porsche product or service?

If you have any concerns regarding your new or used vehicle, or feedback about services provided by Porsche or our business partners (e.g. a Porsche Dealer or Certified Collision Centre), please contact us at customer.commitment@porsche.com.au.

We ask for your understanding that the whistleblower system cannot accept or process any customer cases and, in particular, cannot forward them.
