Een vertrouwenspersoon houdt zich bezig met zowel ongewenste omgangsvormen zoals (seksuele) intimidatie, agressie, pesten en discriminatie, als met integriteitskwesties zoals fraude, diefstal, misbruik van bedrijfsmiddelen, ongewenste nevenactiviteiten of machtsmisbruik.

Voor kleinere organisaties is het vaak lastig om een eigen (interne) vertrouwenspersoon te hebben. Voor hen is een extern vertrouwenspersoon dan een goede oplossing. Maar ook grotere organisaties kiezen vaak voor een extern vertrouwenspersoon, al dan niet in combinatie met een interne vertrouwenspersoon. De externe vertrouwenspersoon kan uw interne vertrouwenspersoon ondersteunen en is onafhankelijk. Dat maakt het voor sommige werknemers makkelijker om iets te melden of te bespreken.

Do organizations need an internal or external confidential advisor?

It is expected that having a trustee is likely to become mandatory for all organizations. This bill is currently being debated in the second chamber.

Already, the Social Affairs and Employment Inspectorate checks to see if there is a properly trained confidential advisor.

Waarom een extern vertrouwenspersoon in Noord Brabant van Partners in Vertrouwen?

Our external confidants come from legal practice, psychology practice and business. They have attention and knowledge of both the importance of acknowledging personal experiences, emotions, communication and organizational interests involved in problem solving.

We believe that prevention is better than cure and therefore proactively put prevention first.

We are independent and proactive and have no interests or relationships with other employees. Therefore, it is easier for employees to go to an external confidant if they are confronted with a colleague’s inappropriate behavior or suspect integrity violations.

We provide analysis and advice regarding how desired manners and integrity are included in your code of conduct and integrity policy, as well as for your existing reporting procedure and grievance procedure and review them against regulations.

We demonstrate accountability to management by producing a fully anonymized annual report with analysis of findings and recommendations.

We have mediators on our team with years of mediation experience who can do conversation coaching in addition to mediation.

We are happy to support your internal confidants by sparring with them or offering peer review.

We provide replacements for vacation and illness.

We allow ourselves to be evaluated by your own employees, anonymously, so that you can get feedback on the appreciation of our performance.

Our external confidential advisors have a legal background and extensive experience within small and large (international) organizations, both in the commercial and nonprofit sectors.

Our external confidants are solution-oriented within the capabilities of the metier of Confidant.

Our external confidants are LVV registered and speak both Dutch and English.
