Your responsibilities as employer
You, as an organisation, can encourage your employees to take responsibility for their own career. Professional career coaching contributes towards the following:
- increase in employees’ motivation and commitment;
- increase in resilience and agility;
- more specifically, targeting the employees’ training needs and requirements;
- arriving at more personalised development plans;
- encouraging internal mobility;
- additional well-being on the work floor;
An employer may promote the system of career cheques among his employees, provided that he adheres to the specific rules and clearly communicates this to his employees, namely:
- an employer may not in any case whatsoever exert pressure on the employee to make use of his or her career cheque;
- an employee may choose at what point in time he or she requests or submits his or her cheque;
- an employee may choose the centre where he or she submits the cheque; such choice is not allowed to hold any consequences for the employee;
- an employee must be aware of the fact that he or she is only entitled to two career cheques of four hours during the course of 6 years; if he or she submits this, he or she can re-apply for a cheque six years after the start of the first coaching;
- there may not be any exchange between the employer and the career centre regarding the coaching or the content of the coaching;
- the coaching that the employee receives by way of the career cheque may not in any case whatsoever replace the coaching that the employee should receive via the employer.
