ETHICS HELPLINE

If you need to discuss an issue, the best place to start is often with your Supervisor.

They know your situation; they can direct you to resources, help you with procedures, and lend immediate support. But you can always reach out to our Celanese Leaders, HR Partner, or Chief Compliance Officer.

The Ethics Helpline, our whistleblower hotline, is always available to you to raise your compliance concerns confidentially or anonymously. It's necessary to report certain compliance issues (bribes, price fixing, and failures of financial integrity) to the Chief Compliance Officer or the Ethics Helpline because they can result in serious consequences.

The Ethics Helpline

All Ethics Helpline calls are confidential and, if you like, you can raise concerns anonymously.
