Harman International Hotline for Reporting Accounting Policy Violations and Fraud 

Our audit committee has established procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints or concerns by employees or individuals outside of the Company, regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters at the Company.

 

Employees or other stakeholders are encouraged to promptly communicate violations of the company’s code of business conduct, concerns or complaints regarding the Company's accounting, internal accounting controls, auditing matters or possible fraudulent activity either through the hotline or post office box.

Understanding and acting upon any issues that exist regarding financial, accounting and/or auditing matters is an essential component to our ability to take action and ensure the highest levels of financial fidelity.

 

When communicating any issue be sure to include adequate information so that it may be investigated properly. 

  • Description of the suspected violation of accounting policy or fraudulent activity;
  • Party or parties involved, if known;
  • Financial amount, if known; and
  • Any other information you believe may assist in our investigation.

The audit committee encourages you to supply contact information with your submission to facilitate clarification and any assistance with possible investigation, however, you are not required to do so.  You may report your complaints or concerns anonymously and confidentially.

Your report will be delivered directly to the Company’s Internal Auditor and In-house Counsel who are required to communicate all reports relating to accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters to the audit committee of the board of directors.
