CSR 2016 – boskalis
61
Boskalis operates a two-tier board model, which means that management and supervision
are segregated. The Board of Management is responsible for the day-to-day management
of the business, and for setting out and realizing the company’s long-term strategy
along with the associated risks, the results and entrepreneurial aspects relevant to the
company. The Supervisory Board is responsible for supervising management performance
and also provides the Board of Management with advice. At Boskalis there is close
collaboration between the Supervisory Board and its committees, as well as the
Board of Management to ensure that the interests of all our stakeholders are taken
into account.
The Supervisory Board reviews the strategy and the risks associated with it. Early 2017,
the Corporate Business Plan 2017-2019 was discussed and approved. For more
information, please refer to th
e strategy section in our Annual Report 2016.At the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders in November Ms. Ilona Haaijer
was appointed to the Supervisory Board for a four-year term. Ms. Haaijer is
considered to be very qualified to fulfill the Supervisory Board role thanks to her
extensive management experience gained at a diverse group of international listed
companies.
The remuneration policy and remuneration elements are directly derived from the
Boskalis strategic agenda, incorporating not just financial-economic objectives but
also CSR objectives such as safety and talent management. The 2016 Remuneration
Report states clearly that these CSR aspects are part of the long-term corporate
objectives. The external auditor is involved in determining the remuneration and is
responsible for ensuring that the relevant procedures are followed correctly. Please
refer to
our corporate website for the Remuneration Report.The Board of Management is responsible for the company’s CSR policy and is
supported in this role by the Taskforces Energy Management and Eco-Engineering.
The manager SHE-Q reports to the Board of Management on safety related topics.
With regard to HR-related objectives the HR director reports to the Board of Management.
