Our employees' health

We consider it of great importance to contribute to our employees’ physical and mental well-being. In this context, everybody is regularly invited to participate in a Preventive Medical Examination. The personal results are only discussed with the employee concerned. This way, he or she will obtain insight into their own lifestyle and health. The general results allow us to improve our employees’ health and sustainable employability even further. For example, we offer discounts on visits to fitness centres. In fact, this has become one of the fixed terms of employment.

Sanna Jordens - Integrity & Compliance Manager

Every country in which De Heus operates has its own cultural values. This produces complex and interesting issues. Which is exactly what Sanna enjoys. Sanna loves challenges and sees in everything a possibility to reflect on what can be improved. "I am fascinated by people's behaviour, why they do what they do and what drives them. Once you know what motivates someone, you know how best to approach them and what you need to do - if necessary - to change that behaviour."
