CSR
NEN is open and transparant about its activities and goals in the area of CSR. We stimulate the use of the international guideline ISO 26000. But we also examine ourselves to see what we can improve, not only as an employer, but also in our use of energy and resources.
Electric driving & chargepoints
NEN has seven chargepoints for electric cars. Two of them can be used by the public (payment required).
NEN has one fully electric car that can be used by employees for meetings with clients at other locations.
Energy monitoring
In 2017 NEN reduced the use of electricity by 17,34%.
NEN has installed sensors to detect the use of spaces. Rooms that have not been used are not cleaned, which results in savings in water and energy consumption.
NENAcademy
Employees can attend training days and workshops organized by NENAcademy. In addition, inspiration sessions are organized on a variety of topics and best practices.
