Corporate social responsibility (CSR)

Sustainable business pays off! It saves costs, promotes innovation, contributes to a good reputation, and also makes the world a better place.

CSR pays off in many ways:

Measures, for example in the field of energy saving, pay for themselves and reduce operating costs.
A pleasant working environment and motivated employees lead to higher productivity and less staff turnover.
You are more attractive as an employer to come and work for.
Healthy employees ensure less absenteeism.
Public participation and employee involvement lead to good ideas for improving business operations, products and services.
In the longer term, you will benefit financially from the improved efficiency and reputation of your company.
CSR leads to innovation and this strengthens competitiveness.
The world will be a better place and you will contribute to a good future for your (grand)children.
CSR gives a good feeling and more pleasure in your work.

With CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility), you contribute to the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
