Ombudsman: independent, external Contact Person
The ombudsman protects the identity of a whistleblower through his obligation of secrecy as a lawyer. The identity of the whistleblower will only be disclosed to the investigating bodies of the company upon request and with the express consent of the whistleblower. A professional infrastructure and clearly defined processes from receipt to processing of a report ensure that all reports are processed quickly.
Rheinmetall AG has appointed the Frankfurt lawyer Dr. Rainer Buchert as ombudsman of the Group and its subsidiaries. He serves all Rheinmetall employees worldwide as an external contact point for compliance violations.
If you would like to give a confidential note or transfer encrypted information, please use this online contact form . By using the contact form a high IT security standard is guaranteed in the communication between you as whistleblower and the ombudsman.
If you wish to address the ombudsman (lawyer of confidence) personally, you will be put through to him in his office without further inquiry. You can also reach him directly by telephone or e-mail.
