Welcome
Welcome to your new workplace!
After years of preparation we will move into our new distribution and service centre and Bleiswijk will
be your new workplace from now on.

A new workplace brings a number of changes. To make you feel at home quickly and easily, we have
collected fun and practical information in this booklet.

Good luck and enjoy your new workplace!

Our new building is very sustainable!

The new distribution centre meets all criteria applying to the so-called BREEAM Outstanding Label.
This is the highest attainable sustainability class for buildings. To achieve this, we have created a
highly sustainable building using all kinds of state-of-the-art systems to keep pressure on the
environment to a minimum.

Did you know that…

 the building is entirely gas-free?
 the toilets are flushed with rainwater?
 we use heat and cold storage in the ground?
 the electric charging stations take their power from the solar cells on the roof?
 lighting in the building switches on/off automatically based on the presence and amount of
daylight?
 Lighting in the circulation routes is operated centrally on the basis of operating hours?

The sustainability label has informed the layout of the building and also influenced our work methods.

Access
Hoogvliet’s building is protected with a access control system. On the first day, everyone receives a
new access pass that you must carry with you at all times. This system is necessary for protection of
the spaces and for presence registration for your own safety in case of calamities.

Opening hours of the staff restaurant and canteens

The staff restaurant will be open Mondays to Saturdays from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M.
Catering is closed at night, but it is possible to have your meal in the staff restaurant. In addition to the
staff restaurant there are 2 canteens for packaging staff and in the Central Butchery.

Waste separation
Waste is separated in the staff restaurant, canteens and pantries: Organic waste, plastic waste and
residual waste.

Smoking policy
Hoogvliet is a non-smoking organisation, there is no smoking area available. Smoking is only allowed
during breaks, outdoors on the designated location at the bicycle parking.

Changing rooms and lockers

There are lockers and changing rooms in the distribution centre. Scanning your access pass will
assign you a locker. You must empty this locker at the end of the day, for you are given a different
locker each time. The figure below shows where the changing rooms are located.

2. Safety

Working safely comes first in our new distribution centre. This not only concerns measures to prevent
(physically) unsafe situations, but foremost: how do we work together safely and how do we
communicate with each other about this.

Hygiene is an important issue within the food processing industry, within our company and within our
(logistic) processes. In our distribution centre hygiene therefore plays a main role in our focus on
Safety.

Together, we are responsible for guarding and improving hygiene and safety. Report potential
hazardous situations and call each other to account for unsafe behaviour, whatever your position is.
Hoogvliet’s distribution centre has the ambition to be the Netherlands’ safest warehouse by 2021. Help
us achieve this goal!

Traffic regulations logistics

To prevent unsafe situations, traffic regulations have been drawn up for the distribution centre. At all
entrances to the distribution centres there are signs with the circulation routes and pictograms showing
the orders and prohibitions that all people present in the distribution centres must comply with.

Lactation room/First-aid rooms

There are 3 First-aid rooms in the building. In the canteen of the bakery is the lactation room, which
also serves as a first-aid room. The second first-aid room is on the ground floor in the distribution
centre, next to the workplace of Witron. The third room is next to the technical service department on
the first floor of the packaging department. An AED is available in the first-aid room.

Hygiene zone HCS and Bakery

In the butchery and bakery there are additional rules in the field of hygiene. As this concerns the
processing of raw materials into fresh meat products for consumers, rules are stricter than in an
environment in which only packaged products are processed. In the new environment we have a
separate entrance for drivers who can choose whether they hand over the delivery documents through
a hatch and do not enter the reception area, or have access to the reception area via a hygienic
sluice. In the sluice it is mandatory to put on protective clothing, and wash and disinfect one’s hands.
The driver will pass over a brush with soap.

The reception area is cleaned and disinfected daily using a high-pressure system.

All staff of the butchery and bakery only have access to the logistic and production rooms via a
hygienic sluice. To all staff and visitors applies that they only have access to the various rooms if al
hygiene rules have been met. This means clean work gear including shoes, hair or beard net on,
hands washed and disinfected.

Floor plan escape routes

The escape routes within the building have been clearly indicated in conformity with the legal
standards. They also indicate where the AED is located.
