Fines and Grievances

CNCo has a Whistleblowing Policy and procedures in place for shore-based and seagoing employees to report any issues that they feel may negatively affect health, safety or environment, or relate to any regulatory areas mentioned above. This can be an entirely confidential process should the employee choose to remain anonymous and does not wish to receive a follow-up. We encourage CNCo employees to use our whistleblowing channels and relevant management will then diligently investigate all reports.
