Van Os-Sonnevelt diversity policy
In December 2006, Van Os-Sonnevelt was among the first companies in its industry to sign the diversity policy developed by the Diversity Entrepreneurs Platform.

As a consequence, the company will maximize opportunities for people who are hard to employ in the regular job market: foreigners, older people, disabled people…
The Diversity Entrepreneurs Platform is a joint initiative of the employers’ organizations VOKA, VKW and Unizo. It started end October 2006 and aims at stimulating employers to embed diversity in their human resources policy.
“The Diversity Entrepreneurs Platform hands us several tools to successfully implement a diversity policy throughout the entire company”, says Gerard van Os. “When done properly, diversity increases the employees’ involvement in the corporate social policy. It would be great if, through signing the diversity policy, we could add to a better understanding between people who differ from one another.”
