Anti-corruption unit

In May 2013, the HfMT, together with the Hafen City University (HCU), the Hamburg University of Fine Arts (HFBK) and the Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH), also assigned the function of anti-corruption office to the joint internal audit department.

The appointment is based on the agreement of the "General Administrative Regulation on Measures to Combat Corruption (in particular Corruption Prevention)" in accordance with Section 94 of the Hamburg Staff Representation Act of 30.08.2001. Corruption damages the reputation and economic efficiency of universities / higher education institutions. Preventing and, if necessary, prosecuting corruption is therefore in the common interest of all employees. It is the responsibility of superiors to educate their employees, to point out potential dangers and to protect them from the risk of corruption. Every employee has a duty to support others, to take signs of corruption seriously and, if necessary, to overcome difficult situations together. The ZAF offers appropriate training courses to support you in this.

If you become aware of a case of corruption or a related offense based on information obtained in the course of your work, or if you have reasonable grounds to suspect it, please report this at an early stage.

The Anti-Corruption Office is available as a contact for this purpose, which will receive and examine your information confidentially and take any necessary steps.
