Corporate Governance

Good governance is indispensable to a healthy enterprise. Control, management and supervision must be distributed among different bodies in a responsible manner, and all those involved in the company (employees, shareholders and other financial backers, suppliers, customers, but also the government and social groups) must be assured that their interests are safeguarded.

Grontmij’s governance is structured effectively. This organisational structure, supported by our core values and Code of Conduct, facilitates transparent reporting throughout the Group to both the Supervisory Board (SB) and the Executive Board (EB). In turn, both SB and EB report to the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGM). AGM, SB and EB each have specific powers and responsibilities; these are described comprehensively in the Articles of Association and separate charters that can be downloaded (see right hand side bar).
