Ombudsman:
The ombudsman is a freelance lawyer who is not an employee of the Lufthansa Group. As a neutral, independent point of contact, he receives tips by telephone or in writing and forwards them – if the whistleblower wishes – only in anonymous form to the Corporate Compliance Office for further processing. The identity of the whistleblower is protected both by the lawyer’s duty of confidentiality and by the ombudsman’s right to refuse to testify. The Lufthansa Group has also contractually waived the release of legal documents so that it only learns the name of the whistleblower if the whistleblower expressly permits the release.
