Guus Slutter, HR manager for Vandersanden the Netherlands and Germany
Guus Slutter is HR manager for Vandersanden the Netherlands and Germany and has been employed at Vandersanden since 2003.
“Collective well-being at work is our translation of Long-term Employability. In concrete terms, colleagues are spared where they must, and encouraged where they can. In this context, we have several programmes running. They range from competence development and coaching to on-the-job training for production staff.”
“Our goal is to keep all our employees employable as long as possible. We do this by focusing on health and safety, but also by providing incentives for them to continue to develop.”
"Vandersanden dares to invest in collective well-being"
“We were recently recognised as a 'Great Place to Work'. We are very proud of this but with the necessary modesty. The granting of the certificate shows that we are on the right track, but there is always room for improvement. Of course, we run into some challenges now and then, but that’s part of the job and makes it challenging.”
“Long-term employability is a familiar concept, but Vandersanden is a trendsetter within our sector in terms of implementation. Peer companies sometimes admire this, and rightly so. This is due in large part to our position as a family business. Vandersanden is a solid company that can, but above all dares to, invest in collective well-being.”
