Reporting Violations And Action Against Breach
- a. Associates must report any violations to the designated authority as per the procedure defined in the Whistleblower Policy and documented on the Learn & Share Report. This will ensure that proper action is taken for any reported violations.

If the violation is proven, the Company will have the right to terminate the employment or contract without giving any notice or pay in lieu thereof and may seek legal recourse against the violator, if required.
