Empowering our people to make the right decisions — every time

At Kuehne+Nagel, compliance is more than a requirement — it is a shared commitment that shapes how we inspire, how we empower, and how we deliver value for our customers and partners. Strong compliance training is built on people who understand expectations, trust the process, and act with confidence and integrity in all situations. Our global compliance training programme equips every employee with the knowledge, tools, and judgement needed to navigate risks and support responsible, sustainable growth.

Our training ensures that employees can:

  • Recognise risks early

  • Make informed choices

  • Ask the right questions

  • Seek guidance when something doesn’t feel right

Compliance at Kuehne+Nagel is designed to be clear, practical, and supportive — never fear‑based or unnecessarily complex.

We invest in training because good decisions don’t happen by accident — they happen by design.

Our three‑layer compliance training model

Foundation – For everyone

Our Code of Conduct forms the backbone of our training programme. All employees receive accessible core training that covers essential compliance principles. Content is available in multiple formats and languages, enabling colleagues to quickly find what they need and apply it in their daily work.

Role‑based – For higher‑risk functions

Focused on what matters most for day‑to‑day decisions. These modules address real risks in our business — anti‑bribery, antitrust, trade control, data protection, conflicts of interest, and responsible business conduct. Training remains practical, relevant, and directly connected to everyday scenarios.

Deep‑dive – For specialised expertise

Engaging, not overwhelming. Advanced modules are delivered through case studies, interactive exercises, and scenario‑based decision‑making.

These sessions help employees understand not only what the rules are, but why they matter — and what good judgement looks like in practice.

Continuous learning, not one‑off events

Compliance is not a yearly reminder — it’s an ongoing conversation.

We offer:

  • Annual mandatory training tailored to risk exposure

  • Role‑specific deep‑dives for high-impact functions

  • Short, just-in-time micro-trainings for emerging risks

  • Leadership briefings focused on tone-from-the-top

  • Targeted refreshers when regulations or expectations change

This ensures our people stay informed, confident, and able to navigate a dynamic regulatory environment.

Support as needed

Training is just one part of our compliance culture. Employees always have access to:

  • Compliance specialists

  • Global policy and guidance materials

  • Transparent reporting channels, including our Confidential Reporting Line

  • Quick-reference tools for day-to-day decisions

We encourage a proactive approach: if in doubt, reach out.

By working together with integrity, we protect our people, our reputation, and our future.

Our compliance training is regularly reviewed to ensure it remains effective and aligned with evolving legal standards, internal regulation, and best practices.
