Voorstel van wet van het lid Maatoug tot wijziging van de Arbeidsomstandighedenwet in verband met het verplicht stellen van een vertrouwenspersoon

Stage otherUpdated 6d ago

This is a private member's bill from Dutch MP Maatoug in the Tweede Kamer (House of Representatives). It would amend the Working Conditions Act (Arbeidsomstandighedenwet) so that employers must appoint a confidential counsellor (vertrouwenspersoon). Such a counsellor gives employees a confidential place to report and discuss problems like harassment, bullying, discrimination, and other unwanted behaviour at work. This summary is based on the title and metadata only, not the full text of the bill. Employers in the Netherlands would be required to provide a confidential counsellor, and employees would gain a formal, guaranteed point of contact for workplace concerns. The exact scope, such as which employers are covered and how counsellors must be independent, depends on the full bill text.
