This is due to reports and reports that Christian Dorer is said to have violated Ringier AG’s Code of Conduct. There are allegations that a particular group of employees is given preferential treatment and that there is no clear distinction between private and work.

Ringier will research, clarify and fully process these reports and observations.

Christian Dorer, Editor-in-Chief of the Blick Group: “For me, the well-being of the Blick Group and its employees has always been and remains a focus. If I have harmed the well-being of the group or individuals by my unintentional actions, I regret above all else. I want the matter clarified. My absence will simplify the investigation, so this permission is also useful to me – although my name is extremely difficult for me. »

Christian Dorer will officially remain the Blick Group’s Editor-in-Chief during his absence, but will not fulfill his duties in a journalistic or administrative capacity. Journalism responsibility will be temporarily transferred to Steffi Buchli (Blick Sport Editor-in-Chief) and Andreas Dietrich (Blick Editor-in-Chief). Ladina Heimgartner as CEO of Blick Group and Roman Sigrist as COO will take over all other management duties on an interim basis.

Ladina Heimgartner, CEO of Blick Group and Head of Global Media: “The topic of ‘corporate culture’ will be an absolute focus in the weeks and months to come. During a “culture audit”, with the help of external experts, we will examine the details of the company culture within the Blick Group and initiate measures that further promote and long-term solidify a healthy and open company culture. »
