Roller coaster manufacturer Vekoma successfully transitioned from pension fund PME to BeFrank in just six months. How did they manage such a rapid change? By involving all employees from the very beginning, says Director of Change Yvonne Paulussen during the first Highberg Inspiration Session of 2023. "Although I would recommend giving everyone more time in a process like this. We worked ourselves to the bone last year."

Harmonizing Employment Conditions at Coop and PLUS

Inspiration Session – November 27, 2024

Inspsesse

Following the merger between Coop and PLUS, the two headquarters were consolidated into a single office in Utrecht. Employees at this new Utrecht-based head office were working under three different employment terms packages. It became an urgent priority to develop one unified employment conditions package for all three groups, as well as for future employees. Additionally, all staff needed to be integrated into a single HR information system. One of the key principles was that the new package should be motivating and ensure no employee would experience a loss. The new legislation on future pensions (Wet Toekomst Pensioenen) was also taken into account.
Below is a summary of the inspiration session.
