The Compliance Committee, consisting of the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), the Regional Compliance Delegates (RCDs) and the department heads, is responsible for compliance management. The Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) reports directly to the Management Board of LR Health & Beauty. The CCO is also a member of the Professional Association of Compliance Managers and discusses current issues with other compliance managers. The Regional Compliance Delegates (RCD) support the Chief Compliance Officer with regard to the compliance of the international LR sales companies.

Taking into account the latest developments, the Compliance Committee regularly reviews the functioning of the Compliance Management System (CMS) and systematically reduces the causes of internal compliance violations. The Compliance Committee also strengthens the awareness of all company employees to critically examine their own actions.

The Compliance Committee meets with the Management Board several times a year to discuss current compliance issues and initiate any necessary adjustments. It also submits an annual risk report to the Supervisory Board.

Our Compliance Management System has been certified by TÜV Rheinland. TÜV Rheinland has thus confirmed that we have established and implemented an effective compliance management system to fulfill the legal and official regulations and requirements arising from our business activities.

LR has set up a Whistleblower System in which potential misconduct, grievances and violations of the law or internal guidelines can be reported – anonymously if necessary. The whistleblower system is an important part of our compliance initiatives and helps to maintain a legally compliant corporate culture. The early and low-threshold recording of information allows potential risks to be identified before they develop into major challenges. In this way, we take proactive measures to prevent damage to the company, our employees, customers, sales partners and suppliers.

Violations of laws, the LR Code of Conduct or other internal guidelines will be penalized accordingly, depending on their severity and repetition.

LR Health & Beauty attaches great importance to the accuracy and completeness of the information provided on food supplements and cosmetics. In doing so, we naturally comply with the relevant legal regulations, such as the Health Claims Regulation, the Food Information Regulation, the Cosmetics

Regulation and competition law. We expect the same from our sales partners. You are required to use only the product information and materials provided by LR.

Many of our sales partners talk about their personal experiences with LR products on the communication channels. We would like to draw your attention to the fact that health claims are only permitted within the legal framework. If we become aware of any unlawful statements, we will investigate them rigorously. We reserve the right to take further action in the event of violations.

Our corporate philosophy attaches great importance to creating a respectful, open-minded and tolerant environment in which people with different backgrounds and views can work together productively. That is what we are committed to!

The right to freedom of expression is enshrined in the Basic Law. We take this fundamental right seriously and do not comment on the private opinions of sales partners or employees. We expressly point out that private opinions expressed by our sales partners or employees do not represent the official position of the company and may even differ significantly from our own opinion in individual cases.
