Skanska is committed to ethical business conduct. We want to receive information about suspected misconduct so that we can respond to it in time. The Whistleblower Protection Act requires Skanska to ensure that possible misconduct can be reported safely and in a way that protects the identity of both the reporter and the subject of the report in the reporting procedure.
In this Privacy Notice, we describe how we process your personal data in connection with the handling of reports made to Skanska’s whistleblowing channel. The processing of personal data concerns the reporter, other persons who are the subject of the report, and other persons related to the report or its handling.
The controller for the processing activities described in this Privacy Notice is Skanska Oy and each of its subsidiaries, as well as Skanska CDF Oy (“Skanska” or “we”), in relation to their own operations. Skanska Oy’s subsidiaries are Skanska Talonrakennus Oy, Skanska Infra Oy and Skanska Rakennuskone Oy.
In respect of Skanska Group’s common Hotline reporting channel, the data controller is Skanska AB.
The data are mainly collected from the data subjects themselves when the data subject submits a report to the whistleblowing channel, and from the subjects of reports in connection with the report and during possible additional clarification.
Data are collected from persons other than the data subjects only to the extent necessary to determine the correctness of the report and the necessary follow-up measures.
