Whistleblowing Policy
The Corporate Social Responsibility Policy and the Code of Conduct define a set of values and principles that YABIMO has committed to abide by. The working methods we have established allow us to ensure an adequate level of protection and contribute to the creation of a working environment in which each employee is considered equally, fairly, and with respect.
Each employee is obliged to follow these rules in order to build a friendly work environment at YABIMO. However, we bear in mind that we are exposed to various types of situations during our daily activities. This sometimes means that we have to face situations that compel us to resist inappropriate attitudes or practices.
YABIMO, in order to meet the employee’s expectations, implemented an internal process of reporting irregularities and fraud, also through confidential reports. It is recommended that:
- The first step to counteract the observed irregularities is to report the problem as soon as possible, preferably to your immediate supervisor.
- If an employee believes that he or she is unable to do so for some reason, contacting a senior management representative should be considered.
- Having objections to the above-mentioned forms, YABIMO has established an impartial fraud team through which the employee can report a noticed problem, guaranteeing them full confidentiality of their report and entities that occur in it.
YABIMO guarantees the confidentiality of the reports and the data contained therein, as well as the anonymity of the Applicants or any other person who submits the report, also if it turns out to be incorrect or unfounded. The organization offers the possibility of making reports by name as well as anonymously, with the emphasis that regardless of the form of providing information, each report will be considered as a separate case, equally important from the point of view of the organization.
YABIMO guarantees that no threats, retaliation, sanctions, or discriminatory behavior of any kind will be tolerated in relation to:
- The person of the applicant,
- The person about whom the Application was sent,
- The person cooperating in activities checking the validity of the Notification.
The principles of this Policy in no way affect or limit the obligation and the possibility of reporting irregularities to the competent judicial, supervisory, or regulatory authorities in Poland and countries in which Yabimo group companies are developing their activities, as well as the obligation to notify internal control authorities at YABIMO Sp. z o. o. and Shared Services Centre companies.
WHISTLEBLOWING REPORT

The President of the Board & CEO
Climate Change Management
Managing climate change is a key element of Yabimo’s sustainable development strategy. Being aware of the impact of our activities on the environment, we consistently introduce and develop initiatives that minimize our carbon footprint and promote sustainable practices. Below are
the actions we have undertaken as part of our environmental policy:
Waste Segregation
To reduce waste, YABIMO has introduced rigorous waste segregation rules at our locations. Each office has a system that allows waste to be separated into categories such as paper, plastic, glass, and organic waste. We regularly educate our employees on proper segregation practices through training, visual signage and information boards in offices.
Installation of Tap Water Filtration Devices (the replacement of plastic bottles)
To limit the use of single-use plastic bottles, we have installed tap water filtration devices in our offices. This action reduces the use of plastic bottles by thousands annually, significantly impacting the environment.
Use of Mineral Water in Glass Bottles Only
Another step towards reducing plastic waste is the decision to use mineral water and beverages only in glass bottles. The employees and clients have access to drinks provided in returnable and reusable glass bottles in each office, thus reducing plastic pollution.
Car Sharing Program
The car-sharing program we have launched in all our locations reduces CO2 emissions by limiting the number of vehicles needed for daily company operations. The employees have access to a fleet of cars they can share for business purposes, not only contributing to environmental protection through emission reduction, but also through operational cost optimization while promoting sustainable mobility.
Environmental Management System (ISO 14001:2015)
The certified Environmental Management System, according to ISO 14001:2015, which we have implemented, confirms our commitment to sustainable operations. This system helps us identify, monitor and manage environmental issues while continuously improving our
eco-friendly practices. We consistently implement this system across all locations, ensuring
a uniform approach to environmental protection throughout the organization.
Electronic Document Circulation (PIT)
By introducing electronic document circulation for tax declarations, we have significantly reduced paper consumption and related natural resources in all our offices. We shorten document processing time through automation and digitization, which not only increases operational efficiency, but also supports environmental goals by significantly reducing
the carbon footprint associated with paper production and logistics.
Tree Planting Campaign
Green area reclamation plays an important role in our activities. We organize regular tree-planting campaigns, involving our employees in collaboration with the Niepolomice Forest District, helping to increase the number of trees in Krakow and the surrounding areas. This initiative aids in carbon capture and storage, improves air quality, and creates friendly spaces for local communities. Last year, we planted about 400 beech seedlings, contributing significantly to the fight against global warming.
YABIMO emphasizes its commitment to managing climate change through comprehensive, multifaceted actions in all our locations. Our goal is to minimize environmental impact, promote sustainable development, and inspire others to take similar steps.
