“People often think that it is all
about making a profit at commercial
organisations. But I believe that as an
employer, we show that we are not only
focus on the commercial interests,
but also look at the social interests of
employees. We do this, among other
things, by facilitating development study
paths, 360-degree feedback in which
the employee is the central focus, or
onboarding processes that are cross-
departmental. But also in small things,
such as sending a card or thank you gift to
colleagues who have completed training
or have made an extra efort in certain
projects, we show this aspect again.”

Mosaic World,
an employer with
a social impact
Can we, as a commercial player responding
to market needs, also make a social impact?
According to Mathilde Vaes, HR Manager at
Mosaic World, we prove every day that this is
possible. Not only for our residents, who have
the opportunity to live in affordable housing
through us, but also for our employees.
"In fact, from the very first moment someone
joins us, we also pay attention to the human
aspect. You can see that reflected in our focus
on providing community living for our residents,
but also colleagues are treated. From good
career opportunities, where sometimes even
new jobs are created if someone has specific
knowledge relevant to the organisation, to a
professional onboarding programme, active
guidance and study opportunities. But also
humour, short lines and clear communication,
openness
from
management,
and
joint
activities outside working hours."
"Moreover, what I personally appreciate
enormously is that Mosaic World also
contributes to the appeal of people in need. A
financial contribution to initiatives by Turkish
colleagues to organise a collection for the
victims of the earthquakes in Turkey and Syria,
the housing of Ukrainian refugees, fundraisers
and other initiatives to help the war victims
from Ukraine. It makes Mosaic World an
employer with a social impact.
