Why does our company need a Reporting Channel?
In addition to current laws, we have our own set of rules laid out in our Code of Ethics and Conduct:
• A guide that determines the behaviors to be followed by our employees, suppliers and business partners.
Even so, misconduct is still possible, endangering not only the company, but also you and other co-workers.
• That's why the Reporting Channel exists! To protect everyone.
Through it, you can report irregularities that are not consistent with our values and laws in with total anonymity, helping us to maintain a work environment that is always safe and healthy.
How does it work?
The Channel is outsourced and managed by Contato Seguro, an independent and impartial company.
If you identify or learn about any irregularity:
• Visit contatoseguro.com.br/en/suzano
• The tool is available 24/7
• The service is provided by psychologist-listeners, who receive the report and send the information for analysis, investigation and resolution
Will my identity be protected?
Yes! All reporting is received by Contato Seguro, a totally impartial organization with no relationship to Suzano.
• Your identity will not be revealed under any circumstances
• Anonymity and confidentiality of the information are guaranteed

What kind of issues can I report through the Channel?

Do I need proof?
No. Based on your report, Contato Seguro will forward the information to an Ethics Committee, which will initiate the investigation and properly handle the report. Action will be taken only after the irregularity has been corroborated.
