Ethics and compliance
Ethical conduct is at the core of our organisation.
Every individual working on behalf of PUM has signed a Code of conduct and is required to comply with it.
If you have encountered an ethical issue while working for or with PUM, or are concerned about an ethical dilemma, please feel free to submit your question to the Ethics Committee via: ethics@pum.nl.
Ethical issues may be related to the risk or suspicion of:
- a conflict of interests
- discrimination
- corruption
- unsafe or unfair working conditions
- unfair terms of employment
- tension between short and long-term perspectives
- tension between personal benefit and that of the entire sector or group
- tension between local and regional/global interests etc.
Your message will be reviewed by the Ethics Committee. They assist everyone involved with PUM and offer advice to the board. PUM staff members also have the option of raising an issue anonymously by leaving a message in the Ethics Committee’s postbox.
The Ethics Committee comprises members of PUM staff and external, independent experts. Its members are:
- Gea Eleveld – coordinator
- Daniëlle Kraakman – secretary
- Johan Bouwer – external member/advisor
- Pauline Schrooyen – external member/advisor
- Annette van de Meene – member, PUM expert Hospitality
- Annemieke Timmerman – member, PUM expert Beekeeping
