Social involvement
Our products go to the very heart of society. After all, everyone needs energy. So Nuon feels very strongly about social involvement. One example of this involvement is our altruistic disconnection policy: we prefer to help than to deny our customers energy.
Outside work too, Nuon encourages social involvement among its employees by supporting them in implementing various social initiatives.
Altruistic organisations
Nuon collaborates with several socially motivated organisations such as FRES (Foundation Rural Energy Services) and Natuurmonumenten (Dutch Nature Conservation Society). In addition, we are actively involved in the work experience project Step2Work, the Moroccan Dutch Leadership Institute and Stichting Giving Back
Step2Work
We want to make a contribution to reducing youth unemployment. We do this through the work experience project Step2Work. Here unemployed youngsters can get a work experience placement with Nuon, so they can have a better chance on the labour market. The project also provides professional training and mentoring by a Nuon employee.
Moroccan Dutch Leadership Institute
The Moroccan Dutch Leadership Institute (MDLI) is a new organisation that believes in the power of the Moroccan-Dutch community and is oriented to creating and mobilising an independent Moroccan-Dutch spearhead. By sponsoring the MDLI we aim to help develop and foster independent Moroccan-Dutch talent.
Stichting Giving Back
The Giving Back Foundation coaches talented and ambitious schoolchildren who because of their background have fewer prospects of utilising their talents. It does so by encouraging and coaching the students, enabling them to develop into adults who can be successful in Dutch society and thereby to become role models for their peers. As the principal sponsor of the foundation we provide mentoring and a variety of workshops.
