WORKING ATMOSPHERE & CULTURE TO MAKE YOUR JOURNEY COMFORTABLE 4

4.1 A PLACE FOR EVERYONE

We believe it is important to work with people from different cultures, backgrounds and ways of thinking. But it goes further than that, we want to create a working environment in which explorers feel at home, can be themselves, but also really feel that whoever you are, wherever you come from or whatever you believe in, you are always welcome and accepted . We believe that this contributes to innovation and creativity. When people feel comfortable expressing their thoughts, there is room to gain (new) insights and develop innovative solutions, so that together we can create even more value for our customers and colleagues. To make our vision of diversity and inclusion tangible within the organization, we invest a lot in learning from and with each other and we organize events and outings to connect with each other and to offer a stage to those who want to make their voice heard. We are therefore always open to new ideas and/or initiatives related to this theme!

In addition, we believe it is important to address each other about undesirable behavior (such as discrimination, sexual harassment, aggression, or violence) so that we can guarantee a safe and pleasant workplace. Of course, we hope that this will not happen, but if necessary, you can always contact the confidential advisers within LINKIT, the confidential adviser can advise, guide and offer you help when you are confronted with undesirable behavior.

4.2 QUARTERLY UPDATES

We are happy to keep you informed of all developments within LINKIT! On our biweekly club days, we take you through all kinds of organizational updates. During our Quarterly Updates, we would like to give you more insight into how we are doing as an organization in relation to our goals, what is going on and what the focus will be on in the coming period. We are not happy to see you here, but also find it important. These updates are for connecting with your colleagues, but also with LINKIT. We think it’s important that you know what’s going on, and we’re happy to share this with you. In addition, our Quarterly Update is not a boring monologue from management, but a true party to attend!

4.3 WELLBEING

At LINKIT we believe that happy and healthy employees can get the best out of themselves. To facilitate this for our explorers, we have set up our wellbeing platform. This is a platform in which all kinds of activities are organized by our wellbeing ambassadors on the various wellbeing themes. Participation is certainly not mandatory, but very nice. For example, you can participate in a yoga session, (indoor) skiing, golf or do a cooking workshop together. If you are passionate about something, you can approach the relevant wellbeing ambassador to explore together the possibilities of organizing something for LINKIT.

Mental wellbeing is also important to us. That is why we have confidential advisers that you can approach if you have any concerns. If you do not want this with one of the confidential advisers from LINKIT, we work together with an organization, PSION, who can be reached by telephone during office hours for the support you need. If this shows that this needs to be followed up, we can look together at how we can help you best.

4.4 ACTIVITIES

At our head office in De Meern we have a game room to stimulate relaxation and creativity. So you can play pool, play darts, table tennis or FIFA between your activities. We have lunch together, the lunch will be provided by LINKIT. Around twelve o’clock the crush room is completely filled with all kinds of products for a delicious lunch and we close the week with a ‘VrijMiBo’ (Friday afternoon drinks) at our own bar, where (non-alcoholic) cocktails are made by colleagues every now and then. The office serves as a meeting place for explorers from all over the world! There are also regular team outings where squads and teams doing activities or going to an event together and get to know each other better in other ways.

4.5 CELEBRATE

We like to celebrate something at LINKIT! Whether it’s a present in the mail during Easter, a Christmas package and a Christmas brunch in December or Sinterklaas visiting the LINKids. We love a surprise! In addition, we also celebrate the personal milestones of explorers, such as your birthday, a wedding, the birth of a LINKid, an anniversary, and so on. But of course we also love to celebrate success! Cake for a new partnership, cake for a new customer, and another cake for successful certification for an ISO standard. Or how about the famous Brabant sausage rolls with a first placement or hire of a sales or recruitment colleague? And last but not least, we celebrate every Friday during our drinks that another weekend is just around the corner!
