Having a talented, qualified and vital workforce is key for a.s.r. in achieving its business objectives. a.s.r. is committed to attracting, retaining and inspiring the most suitable employees, by offering ample training and development opportunities and facilitating a sound work/life balance.
Every year a.s.r. receives an annual absenteeism report from the health and safety service with in-depth analyses and trends, plus advice. This advice forms the basis for the themes on which a.s.r. focusses. Every quarter a.s.r. receives from HumanCapitalCare a report on the causes of absenteeism, because a.s.r. is as an employer not allowed to register this data. This gives a.s.r. insight into work-related absenteeism. Trends and risks are discussed at least every quarter in a Social Medical Team (HR advisor, Vitality and Absence Specialist, company doctor and senior management), but more frequently if necessary.
a.s.r. does not have an independent external verification of its health, safety and welfare systems itself, but our occupational health and safety service Human Capital Care has an ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certification. Under the Working Conditions Act, a.s.r. is obliged to have its Risk Inventory and Evaluation checked by a certified health and safety service.a.s.r. has also an Industrial Accidents Guideline (Richtlijn bedrijfsongevallen) and every year HT receives an overview of the accidents that have occurred from the Services staff department.
a.s.r. has a Vitality & Absenteeism team that supports the business in preventing and supervising absenteeism. These specialists can always be reached for managers and employees to think along. Through the health and safety service there is free access to the company doctor and, for example, a company social worker or confidential counselor can be deployed. If necessary, external guidance is used, such as psychological help or a labor expert. The Vitality and Absenteeism specialists are also prevention officers, just like the security coordinators and housing coordinators. The prevention staff implement the action plan based on the RI&E and are periodically trained. Documented in the Working Conditions Policy (Arbobeleid) and Sickness Absenteeism Regulations (Ziekteverzuimreglement).
Employees have access to the Vitality Platform In Motion (In Beweging) and the a.s.r. Academy where they have access to various workshops, e-learning and training courses in the field of physical and mental health. It is mandatory to do the workplace check and information about how to set up your workplace ergonomically.
a.s.r. is committed to providing its employees with a safe and healthy work environment and to meeting all standards according to legal requirements. A safe and healthy environment promotes well-being and motivation, reduces absenteeism due to work-related injuries.
In order to map the risks to health, well-being and safety of the organisation, the Human Capital Care occupational health and safety service provides a.s.r. a Risk Inventory and Evaluation (RI&E) analyses. This analyses forms the basis for the Working Conditions Policy Plan (Arbobeleidspan) and prioritises the action plan (Plan van Aanpak). The Works Council is also involved in this. As part of the RI&E, Human Capital Care is conducting a qualitative study with group interviews among approximately 90 a.s.r. employees. In addition, a.s.r. carries out a Periodic Medical Examination (Vitality Scan) once every 3 years. This study was carried out again in 2021 and an action plan was drawn up based on the results. This Vitality Scan is a very extensive questionnaire in which themes such as stress, burnout risk, cardiovascular risk, stressors from work and energy sources from work are asked.
In addition, targets have been formulated for absenteeism due to illness, these are both a.s.r. broadly determined as per business line. The a.s.r. broad targets can be found in the Annual Report 2021. In addition, the business receives monthly insight into the aforementioned absenteeism figures specified per team via the HR Dashboard. Every manager can run the figures of his own department at any time via the absenteeism system.

Note that the remuneration of the male in the Executive Board exceeds the females in the Executive Board, because the mail is CEO and the females are COO/CTO and CFO.
For Management Level, the numbers for senior members are taken.
If we would take an average of all managers (senior, medior and junior), the average remuneration for women would be € 122,472 and for men € 130,382 per year.

We look in our recruitment system at the number of vacancies that have been filled from 1 January to 31 December this is the figure in the Annual Report on this figure we received reasonable assurance on from KPMG. However, there is still a few months between filling the vacancy and the actual start date. Because we deliberately do not ask for the gender of the applicant in the application process, we cannot make a gender breakdown. However, because we also have targets for the M/F ratio, we look in our HR system, where we do register data about the gender, at the moment that employees start in a new position. However, this means that the numbers in the HR system from 1 January to 31 December are not equal to the filled vacancies registered in the recruitment system. After all, in December, for example, vacancies are filled by employees who may not start until February. These do count in method A (recruitment system) but not in method B (personnel system starts a new position, where we do have the gender data).
