VALUE-DRIVEN ENTREPRENEURSHIP

VanWonen is an inclusive organisation. We are open, honest and ethical in all our operations. Corporate social responsibility is at the core of our business. Our core values are: customer-oriented entrepreneurship, future-oriented teamwork, and integrity & authenticity. Through a highly structured process, we are securing our ESG goals. In order to accelerate the enormous housing construction task.

Inclusive organisation

We strive for a team with a diverse makeup. The Dutch Equal Treatment Act (AWGB) is the cornerstone of our commitment to equality. We uphold ethical standards in our dealings with government, political parties, and politicians. And comply with the procurement rules that apply to government projects or contracts. At a minimum, we operate in accordance with the OECD guidelines. We avoid any involvement in business activities, either directly or indirectly, that could be considered a violation of human rights. We also do not intentionally harm the environment or climate. Our collaboration partners and the companies we work with share these values and act accordingly.

Direction and safeguarding

Area development is a dynamic process, with many parties involved. From the start, we make clear how we will work with our commissioning parties, future residents, public and private collaboration partners. We set expectations and goals that are in line with our internal standards. As well as with the external regulations at the time of handover. Right from the beginning of a project, we set goals for reducing carbon emissions through reduction pathways and a CO2 bank. In doing so, we meet many ESG requirements. From SDGs and OECD Guidelines to the CSRD, EU Taxonomy, DGB, and NEPROM Code of Conduct. We discuss our sustainability ambitions and contractor arrangements with the client right from the planning stage. This helps keep the project on track.

Development and vitality

We strive for customer experience excellence (‘9+’) for all our clients. Residents, stakeholders and collaboration partners. We can only achieve this together with our employees. VanWonen has been certified as a Great Place to Work annually since 2019. In 2020/2021, we even ranked in the Top 10 of Best Workplaces. Our core values are reflected in the actions of our employees. Autonomy, room for entrepreneurship and continuous development are important needs. Which is why we give our employees freedom in their work, create opportunities for entrepreneurship, and encourage both personal and professional development. Health, vitality, and job satisfaction are high on our agenda.
