Vroon

Nothing is more important than ensuring the safety, health and wellbeing of our employees, contractors, those we serve and the marine environment. Our way of working complies with all applicable legislation and guidelines, but also encourages other initiatives for protecting the safety, health and environment of those affected by the Company’s activities.

Our success depends on the abilities and dedication of all employees.

We value loyalty, honesty and integrity and we treat each other with respect.

We will each do our best, give our best and expect the best from each other.

We seek to be an employer of choice and promote teamwork, training and personal development.

We want to recruit, develop and retain the most talented people, irrespective of background, culture or gender. At Vroon, we recognise that being a diverse and inclusive employer helps us fulfil our responsibility to all employees.

We offer and contribute to a (cyber-) secure place of work for all colleagues ashore and at sea.

Vroon aims to provide a working environment where all employees are treated as individuals, fairly and in a consistent way.

Our initiatives, actions and targets geared to supporting our colleagues include:

• Leaders in Safety programme;
• Competence Management System;
• Education and experience;
• Instilling Vroon Core values;
• Continually evolving campaigns to address current issues, such as health, food, travel or behaviour.
