Speak Up About Your Concern

Introduction

 

The UN Global Compact Network Switzerland & Liechtenstein (GCNSL) aims to provide a safe space for employees, Network Participants, and its stakeholders. If you observe or learn about any misconduct involving the GCNSL, we encourage you to raise your concerns via our grievance mechanism.

When to Report a Grievance

Each person is encouraged to raise concerns via the mechanism if they suspect violations of local law and policies or procedures, including but not limited to:

  • The commission of a criminal offence;

  • The failure to comply with a legal obligation or another unlawful act or omission;

  • an act or omission that will, or is likely to, unlawfully endanger the health or safety of an individual or unlawfully damage the environment;

  • incidents of harassment, discrimination, bullying;

  • abuse of power, fraud, corruption, or conflict of interest.

​
