FOM attaches considerable importance to the safety, health and well-being of its staff. The employer and employee are both responsible for health, safety and well-being at the workplace.
With its health & safety policy FOM seeks to realise the following goals:
- optimising the safety and protecting the health of all staff, guests, trainees and visitors;
- handling installations, equipment, machines and goods as healthily and as safely as possible;
- preventing psychosocial work stress as a consequence of excessive work pressure, bullying, sexual harassment, aggression and violence.
FOM describes its health & safety policy in the FOM Health & Safety Policy Memorandum. You can request a copy of this memorandum (available in Dutch only) from your supervisor, the personnel officer or your local health & safety coordinator. You can also obtain your own copy of this memorandum from Ralf Cornelissen, the central health & safety coordinator.
