How to Report a Concern

YIT is committed to respecting good governance and responsible business principles.

We want to ensure good conduct throughout the supply chain and we support developing our industry towards ever greater levels of responsibility and ethics.

The whistleblowing channels, which YIT Group has implemented both globally and locally, allows our employees, clients, suppliers and other third parties to raise concerns about any misconduct in terms of laws, regulations, regulations and fair business principles. This may include, for example, the following:

  • Anti-trust, competition legislation;
  • Conflicts of interest or unfair business practices, fraud;
  • Environmental violations;
  • Bribery, corruption or other illegal payments;
  • Data protection, information security, property rights;
  • Inappropriate acceptance or offer of gifts or entertainment;
  • Labor conditions, occupational safety;
  • Money laundering, tax crime;
  • Stock exchange rules.

The whistleblowing channels should not be used to file complaints or to report matters relating to personal disputes. These should be dealt with by those responsible for the relevant area.

Both global and local reporting channels are available online or by phone, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

We encourage you to report openly, by providing your own name and contact details, as all reports are handled with strict confidentiality. You may, of course, file a report anonymously.

The whistleblowing channels of YIT are completely distinct from the IT environment of YIT Group. The third-party service provider (WhistleB) safeguards the anonymity of the person reporting and protects sensitive data. It is not possible to track an anonymous person. IP addresses or other data that could identify a person sending a message cannot be tracked. To minimize all risks, you can leave a report on a device other than your own computer or mobile device.
