Results of biodiversity analysis scoping

Heijmans first looked at which economic activities occur in our direct operations. We compared our own operations from SAP wiht the International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities standard. We then performed an analysis in the ENCORE database based on our economic activities. The ENCORE (Exploring Natural Capital Opportunities, Risks and Exposure) database maps the relationship between sectors, subsectors and activities, and records the potential impacts on and dependencies of nature. ENCORE assigns a materiality level to each economic activity, ranging from ‘Not Material’ to ‘Very High Materiality’, for different impact and dependency categories. To determine whether a location with economic activity is considered potentially material and requires a more detailed analysis, Heijmans has taken the averages of all the materiality scores of the impacts and dependencies. This enabled us to determine an overall score for the potential impacts and dependencies, and determine potential materiality. Based on these overarching materiality scores, we have identified seven economic activities within our direct operations that require a more detailed impact analysis because they have the potential to have a materially negative effect on biodiversity-sensitive areas. We have also identified three economic activities that require a more thorough dependency analysis because they have the potential to be materially dependent on biodiversity and ecosystems.

Non-Material Economic Activity 

Although ENCORE only considers something to be material with an impact or dependency score of Medium, High or Very High (score 3 or higher), Heijmans takes a different approach and considers an average score of the economic activities above 2.5 to be material. This is because combining the scores per impact or dependency category often dampens outliers by working with averages, while these can actually be relevant.

Scope & limitations of the policy and the vision

  • Our current policy is not linked to material dependencies, risks and opportunities.

  • Our current policy is not yet geared towards ensuring that the production, purchase or consumption of products originating from ecosystems are managed in such a way as to maintain or improve the conditions for biodiversity. The only exception to this is the purchase of FSC-certified and PEFC-certified timber, which guarantees that the timber comes from responsibly managed forests.

  • Heijmans does not currently take into account the social consequences of biodiversity and ecosystem-related impacts.

  • The vision and associated policy have been created with an eye to the future and are therefore relevant to the entire Heijmans value chain. However, for the time being, the policy is only being implemented in our direct operations. Because Heijmans only carries out its direct operations in the Netherlands, the vision and its impact factors are therefore also geographically limited to the Netherlands.

  • Heijmans does not currently have a specific policy on sustainable oceans, seas and waterways related to biodiversity and ecosystems. However, Heijmans does adhere to the latest legal and regulatory requirements for coastal protection areas and waterways, where we are currently carrying out a number of projects.

Scope and limitations of actions

  • Heijmans does not currently have any specific actions in place, apart from the climate actions in the climate chapter, to alleviate, support or compensate for impacts on biodiversity that are deemed material.

  • Heijmans does not currently have any insight into whether the measures involve significant operational costs and/or capital expenditures. The reason for this is that the financial year under review is the first time that all actions have been combined in one place. Heijmans aims to identify these costs for the coming years.

  • Heijmans does not currently use biodiversity offsets to compensate for its impact on biodiversity and ecosystems. Nor does Heijmans make use of local and indigenous knowledge when devising and setting up actions.

Method for setting targets and assumptions used

The targets for the Space for Nature and Species Richness impact factors were set using the following method:

  • Integration with the four impact factors: the first step in the process was to align the biodiversity targets with Heijmans‘ four biodiversity impact factors. These impact factors served as a guideline and ensured that the targets were anchored in Heijmans’ established biodiversity vision. Consequently, the targets are also aligned with the scientific pressure factors on which these pillars are based.

  • Alignment with scientific and international targets: in the next step, we looked at relevant international targets and frameworks, such as the Global Biodiversity Framework and the Science Based Targets for Nature (SBTN) framework, to inspire us when setting our own targets. For example, target 1 aligns well with SBTN targets under ‘No Conversion of Natural Ecosystems’ and ‘Land Footprint Reduction’, and target 2 aligns well with Target 1 of the Global Biodiversity Framework ‘Plan and Manage all Areas To Reduce Biodiversity Loss’.

  • Integration with measurement methods and monitoring: we then looked at the feasibility of measuring and monitoring the set targets. Heijmans has estimated the available resources and how we can use these optimally to actually measure progress to achieve the targets we have set. This includes the use of satellite data, the biobuddy and other relevant resources.

  • Targets have been made SMART: as a final step, the targets have been made SMART. SMART methodology ensures that your targets are clear, achievable and measurable, and enables you to work systematically towards achieving those targets. We have chosen the year 2030 as the timeframe, because this is in line with the ‘Nature Positive Initiative’ of, among others, the WWF and the Global Biodiversity Framework, and our own bold statement on sustainability: ‘We give more than we take’.

  • Internal evaluation: the targets were then evaluated internally by subject experts, theme leaders, the Executive Board and those responsible for sustainability within the company's processes. So far, we have not involved external stakeholders in setting the targets.

Scope and limitations of the targets

  • When setting our biodiversity and ecosystem targets, Heijmans did not use ecological thresholds. However, we recognise the importance of integrating ecological thresholds into future targets and ambitions and we will continue to explore how we can effectively implement these concepts to continue to increase our contribution to the conservation of biodiversity and ecosystems.

  • As these targets have only recently been set and we have not yet conducted a full impact analysis, we have not yet determined the baseline value or the baseline year. However, Heijmans does not consider this information necessary for setting the targets, as they are aimed at realising a positive impact in relation to the specific situation of each project.

  • The geographical scope of the defined targets is limited to the Netherlands, as our direct operations are also exclusively within Dutch borders. This means that the targets are specifically aimed at the context of the Dutch market and the business activities carried out within it.

  • Heijmans has not made use of biodiversity offsets in setting its targets. The targets set are based on the four pillars of biodiversity and underlying scientific insights as mentioned above, with a focus on reducing the negative impact on biodiversity through other actions. The targets are thus primarily aimed at preventing damage to ecosystems and promoting biodiversity in the long term, rather than compensating for losses after the fact.

In 2024, we will add 50 newcomers to our workforce

We record the type of residence permit when the person starts working. We can filter these based on the definition set for the annual report.

We only look at employees who started working in 2024.

Employee engagement

The rolling rate of absenteeism in 2024 is 4.75%.

The rolling absenteeism rate means that the average absenteeism rate of the past 12 months is used (in this case, every month of 2024). The absenteeism rate is calculated by dividing the total number of days missed in a month by the potentially available days in a month. This number is then multiplied by 100%.

None.

25% of our new colleagues joined the company via a referral.

When an employee introduces a new colleague, they receive a referral bonus. We keep track of how many new colleagues have been hired through referrals based on the payment of these bonuses.

We assume that everyone who refers a new colleague will receive the referral bonus.

Metric requirements

We did not use an external assurance provider for any of our metrics, except for data points 48, 49 and 51, related to climate change E1. KIWA tests these annually for our CO2 Performance Ladder certification and they were tested once in 2024 by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi).

E1-6

48 (a)

Gross scope 1 emissions.
Scope 1 includes emissions that are a direct result of our activities, such as emissions from our vehicle fleet, our equipment or heating our offices.

Specifically, the office, project locations and vehicle fleet's gas and fuel consumption are added up.

Heijmans measures scope 1 emissions based on the actual quantities of purchased fuels, which means that we include greenhouse gas emissions from stationary combustion, mobile combustion, process emissions and fugitive emissions in our reporting. We have carried out this inventory according to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Standard (version 2004), supplemented by the requirements of the SBTi.

Data is retrieved from energy suppliers, leaseplan and oil plants, multiplied by the CO₂ emission factor of https://www.co2emissiefactoren.nl/lijst-emissiefactoren/

In scope 1, the tank-to-wheel (TTW) emission factor will be used from 2025, and in scope 3, the well-to-tank (WTT) factor will be used.

To communicate the consequences of this change clearly and transparently, this year we will also show in all relevant places what the total of scope 1 looks like in the new calculation method. We will do this by adding a footnote to the relevant figure.

There are no limitations when calculating this data point.

Not applicable, Heijmans is not subject to an ETS system.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

There are no limitations when calculating this data point.

49 (a)

Gross location-based scope 2 emissions.
Heijmans reports its scope 2 emissions released from all purchased electricity, heat, steam and cooling in accordance with GHGP and SBTi. This applies to the location-based method using a national average in conversion calculations.

For Heijmans, gross location-based scope 2 emissions occur in the emissions related to purchased electricity, kerosene consumption when flying and fuel consumption of private cars.

Data is obtained from energy suppliers, leaseplan and oil companies and multiplied by the CO₂ emission factor of https://www.co2emissiefactoren.nl/lijst-emissiefactoren/

Specifically for Van Wanrooij, the scope 2 footprint is partly based on exact data (for example, for cars and offices), but also partly estimated when it comes to electricity consumed on building sites. For the latter, an estimate is made by dividing the total expenditure on building site electricity by an average KWh rate.

Specifically for Van Wanrooij data, a full estimate has been made for all years prior to 2024 based on the figures for 2024.

In addition, an assumption was applied to correct the extraction for VAT and an average price based on underlying invoice data.

There are no limitations when calculating this data point.

49 (b)

Gross market-based scope 2 emissions.
Heijmans reports its scope 2 emissions released from all purchased electricity, heat, steam and cooling in accordance with GHGP and SBTi. This applies to a market-based method using a specific emission factor based on the purchased product.

See calculation for 49(a). Specifically, a separate conversion factor is used (market-based vs. location-based)

See the methodology for scope 1 and 2 emissions.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

There are no limitations when calculating this data point.

51

Breakdown of scope 3 emissions by category.
Our scope 3 emissions include all emissions released from everything that takes place before or after our activities. This ranges from the emissions released from the concrete we purchase, for example, to emissions from the use of homes throughout their entire lifespan after we have delivered them. This is done using the Green Gouse Gap Protocol Corporate Value Chain standard, requirements from SBTI and, where necessary, clarified using the scope 3 guide from the Dutch Green Building Council (DGBC).

Total scope 3 emissions = 1. Purchased goods and services + 2. Capital goods + 3. Fuel and energy + 4. Transport (up) + 5. Waste + 6. Business transport + 7. Commuting + 11. Use of sold products + 12. End-of-life of sold products.

Other categories do not apply to Heijmans.

Specifically, 11 can be broken down into:
- 3.11: Residential building: number of completed buildings * emission factor BENG report
- 3.11: Non-residential building: estimated lifespan * number sold in reporting period * estimated electricity consumption (KwH) * emission factor for electricity (kg CO₂e/KWh)
- 3.11: Infra: for each product group in this category, the following calculation is made: EUR amount / estimated average price per item * estimated average consumption * emission factor for electricity
- 3.11: Van Wanrooij: Average emissions per housing type * estimated number of homes per housing type

For each category of scope 3, the basis on which the data point is calculated is divided: spend or SSC method. Spend is an expenditure analysis and the SSC method is done by requesting expense reports and registering kilometres driven.
- 1 spend (x USEPA emission factors),
- 2 spend (x USEPA emission factors),
- 3 fuels and energy x WTT emission factor,
- 4 spend (x USEPA emission factors),
- 5 spend (x USEPA emission factors),
- 6 average business transport emission factor of https://www.co2emissiefactoren.nl/lijst-emissiefactoren/ multiplied by expense claims and km registration
- 7 average commuting emission factor of https://www.co2emissiefactoren.nl/lijst-emissiefactoren/ multiplied by the commuting kilometres of all personnel without lease cars,
- 11 see above
- 12 property development/residential building by extrapolating an average key figure from MPG calculations over all completed homes.

For Van Wanrooij, estimates are made for all categories except 1 and 11, and the figures for 2019 and 2023. To be made on the basis of the 2024 figures, revenue ratios and scope 3 ratios of Heijmans.

Exclusion of categories:
Six scope 3 categories do not apply to Heijmans. Leased goods do not occur at Heijmans in either our upstream (category 8) or downstream (category 13). As a construction company, we deliver products that are anchored at a location and are immediately suitable for use, which means that both category 9 ‘Downstream transport and distribution’ and 10 ‘Processing of delivered products’ do not play a role in our impact. Category 14 ‘Franchises’ does not apply to us, as we do not have any franchises. Category 15 ‘Investments’ is difficult to report clearly in line with the GHG Protocol due to the nature of the associations that a construction company enters into. We also explain this later in this chapter in the ‘Inventory, consolidation’ section.

Spend analysis:

Various conversion factors are used in the conversion tables for categories 1.2.4 and 5.
Van Wanrooij categories 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 12: The assumption is that the estimates made for the above categories are accurate.

Van Wanrooij categories 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 12:
The assumption is that the estimates made for the above categories give an accurate picture of reality.

Consumption of products sold:
Utilities are reported by estimating energy consumption using key figures for each type of object, such as office buildings, hospitals and data centres. These key figures are obtained either from project-specific calculations or by obtaining averages with our own research into various external sources. The assumption is that these are good indicators for this.

Category 3.11 Property development:
BENG analysis is carried out on homes developed by property development. This figure is extrapolated across all projects completed by residential building.

Consumption of products sold:
No project-specific calculations are available for the infrastructural works we have completed that present a thorough figure for energy consumption. Furthermore, our ERP system does not have the capacity to register or retrieve the number of products that consume energy.

Van Wanrooij:
The Van Wanrooij data is not available for all categories.

Category 3.12 End of life of sold products:
Currently, not all business areas are included. For Infra and Non-Residential building, no data is available yet and nothing is being reported at this time.

E1-7

58 (a)

Total amount of greenhouse gases sequestered and removed.
Greenhouse gas removal refers to the process of reducing the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This can be achieved in various ways, such as removing greenhouse gases from industrial emissions, promoting natural processes that extract greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, or developing technologies that can extract greenhouse gases directly from the air. In Heijmans' current value chain, greenhouse gas removal takes place through biogenic storage in the biobased materials (wooden boards/beams, insulation) purchased for new homes.

Greenhouse gas removal is carried out within projects. The removal is calculated using the Centrum Hout calculation module CO₂ storage in wood based on the calculation method from the EN 16449 standard ‘Wood and wood based products - Calculation of sequestration of atmospheric carbon dioxide’.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

There are no limitations when calculating this data point.

63 (c)

Price for a tonne of CO₂e in euros.
Internal CO₂ pricing at Heijmans is done through a central fund to which business units contribute annually in euros based on estimated scope 1 and scope 2 emissions.

The price in 2020 was determined once on the basis of a study into the price of carbon credits. No direct source was used here, but prices were compared from different providers and project types. The distribution is 100% on scope 1 and 0% on scope two, since the scope 2 footprint is 0 due to the exclusive use of electricity from renewable sources.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

This estimate does not take into account planned measures to reduce these emissions. Scope 3 emissions are not included in this system.

Total water use.
We focus on two aspects of water use: the use of drinking water in offices and project locations and the use of water for (our) materials.

Total water usage is calculated and extrapolated from period invoices from the water suppliers in the accounting programme. Total water usage is then the sum of the water usage from 1 January to the end date of the invoice period and the end date of the invoice period up to and including 31 December of the reporting year.
Total water usage: [Total number of m3 of water withdrawn]. Usage is missing for some office locations. For the locations where water usage is missing, we have made an estimate based on m2. This was done based on the locations where water usage is known. We determined an average water usage per m2 for these locations.

For the offices where we do not use water, we assume that the water consumption is comparable to our other office locations. For this purpose, we have calculated the usage back to water consumption in m3 per m2.
Usage for invoices for the year 2024 has been extrapolated, because the annual invoices often do not apply exactly to 2024, but rather to part of it.

Water use for production is out of scope for the year under review.

28 (b)

Total water use in water risk areas (including areas with severe water stress).
Water risks are the physical properties of water that have a negative impact on the environment. These physical properties of water include quantity (for use and balance), quality and the associated safety for the environment.
For Heijmans, water risk areas are areas that bear all water risks. The relevant water risks are: water stress, water depletion, interannual variability, seasonal variability, decline in the groundwater level, risk of river flooding, risk of coastal flooding, drought risk, untreated wastewater discharge and potential for coastal eutrophication, untreated/no drinking water, untreated/no sanitation and ESG risks.

Water stress refers to high water use in areas where water availability is low.

The total water use has been calculated as equal to DR 28a, and for each location, an Excel workbook is loaded into a GIS programme. This contains maps from Aqueduct, namely Water Stress Areas and Water Risk Areas. The total use is then added up per risk or stress area per category: Low, Low-Medium, Medium-High, High, Extremely High.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

There are no limitations when calculating this data point.

28 (c)

The total amount of recycled and reused water.

Number of company locations that are within a 10-kilometre radius of a biodiversity-sensitive area.

Surface area expressed in hectares: number of business locations that lie within a 10-kilometre radius of a biodiversity-sensitive area x number of hectares per business location that lies within a 10-kilometre radius of a biodiversity-sensitive area according to IBAT.

Biodiversity-sensitive areas refer to the Natura 2000 network of protected areas, UNESCO World Heritage Sites and Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs), as well as other protected areas as referred to in Annex II, Appendix D, to Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139. A company site is in or near a biodiversity-sensitive area if it is located within a radius of 10 kilometres.

All Heijmans projects and sites from the previous reporting period up to and including November 2024 are filtered based on biodiversity impact and dependencies, and economic activity using the https://www.encorenature.org/en database. The IBAT tool https://www.ibat-alliance.org/ is used to calculate the surface area of the locations that remain from the materiality analysis.

Number: All projects with revenue are active projects.

The GPS coordinates are not known for a very limited number of locations, so there may be a small margin of error in the final figures.

If projects have been added since the last IBAT analysis (November ‘24), they are not immediately included in the analysis. This limited number may also have a minimal impact on the final data points.

Adequate wages.
For the definition of a adequate wage, we use the minimum wage that must be paid according to the collective labour agreement.

We determine whether the employee will be paid in accordance with the collective labour agreement based on the collective labour agreement, contract type and age.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

There are no limitations when calculating this data point.

88 (a)

Percentage of our own personnel who are covered by the health and safety management system.
For personnel covered by the health and safety management system, we look at where we have health and safety coordination. We have this coordination for all employees at our own company locations, apart from subcontractors and the direct contracting parties of our clients.

The Heijmans safety policy applies to everyone.
According to the policy, everyone who falls under the category of our own employees is entered into the HR systems.
The percentage was calculated as [number of our own employees who fall under the Heijmans health and safety management system] / [total number of our own employees] * 100.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point..

There are no limitations when calculating this data point.

88 (b)

Number of fatalities as a result of recordable work-related accidents.
The number of fatalities is recorded in the incident system, which is a separate category in the safety dashboard.

All cases are registered via the incident system based on the safety policy, specifically a subcategory based on the number of deaths. This is entered into the safety dashboard in PowerBI. This information pertains to Heijmans employees. Van Wanrooij keeps track of its reports via a different system and submits them separately at the end of the year.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

The fatalities at Brabotech do not fall under the category of ‘own employees’, but rather under ‘subcontractors’.

88 (c)

Number of recordable work-related accidents.
Recordable work-related accidents is defined as any accident that occurs in the workplace. These must be reported by the employee, after which they are categorised based on management as ‘own employee’, ‘temporary worker’ or ‘subcontractor’.

In addition, we categorise industrial accidents based on the type of absenteeism. The categories used for this KPI are: SILT, SILA, LWC, RWC and MTC
SILT: life-threatening injury
SILA: life-changing injury/permanent disability
LWC: accident resulting in absence from work
RWC: accident resulting in alternative work
MTC: treatment - no absence from work

We make a printout from the incident register of the total number of reports with filtering based on categories as stated in the definition. Van Wanrooij keeps track of its reports via a different system and submits these separately at the end of the year. Van Wanrooij classifies its reports based on the above accidents. The accidents are categorised as ‘own employee’ (salaried employees), ‘temporary staff’ and ‘subcontractors’. We use this to calculate the percentage of occupational accidents among salaried employees = ([Number of occupational accidents among salaried employees] / Number of hours worked ) x 1,000,000.
Formula for the accident ratio = [number of industrial accidents] / [number of hours worked]

Hours worked have been estimated by extrapolating them using the number of FTEs employed by Heijmans. We calculate this as [Number of FTEs] x 40 x [total number of weeks - holidays].

If an accident occurs at an associate, we include our share.

We cannot make the division between our own employees and employees who are not our own, as requested by the ESRS, with the current categorisation in our incident register. As a result, we can only report on the categories ‘our own employee’, ‘temporary worker’ and ‘subcontractor’. These categories are based on how the work is directed and are therefore not the same as the contractual agreement.
We are currently unable to extract the hours of salaried employees from our systems, which means we cannot make an estimate for this target group.
The incidents at BraboTech (25 FTEs) are not included in the ‘our own employees’ category, but in ‘subcontractors’.
It is possible that an incident occurs and that an employee does not report it.

88 (d)

Number of recordable work-related ill health cases.
Recordable work-related ill health is (long-term) sickness reported to the company doctor.

The number of reports to the company doctor is obtained from the relevant occupational health and safety service.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

This information is not available for non-salaried employees via the company doctor. This group does not go to the Heijmans company doctor, but if there is a case of an occupational sickness in the workplace, HR and H&S will include them in the occupational sickness reporting procedure as described in the HRM Manual.

We cannot process reports of occupational sicknesses of temporary workers/freelancers in connection with the GDPR guidelines.

S1-16

97 (a)

Pay gap between men and women (%).
The pay gap between men and women is the measurement of the difference in pay between men and women based on hourly wages.

Pay gap = [Average gross hourly wage M] - [Average gross hourly wage F] / [Average gross hourly wage M]

Full-time gross monthly wage incl. (full-time) bonus: WAGR or variable income senior management, per month), converted to hourly wage.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

The 100% subsidiary BraboTech (25 FTEs) is not part of this calculation.

97 (b)

Pay ratio (not including the highest paid person).
This data point pertains to information about the pay ratio between the highest paid and the median total pay (not including the highest paid employee) of all employees. This is how we indicate the pay inequality within the organisation.

We obtain the information for this KPI from our personnel and payroll records with reference date 31-12-2024. The annual remuneration per employee is calculated on gross salary including all bonuses and allowances. The highest paid person is the CEO. For this, we use the total remuneration package received by the CEO, which is explained in detail in the existing management report and remuneration report. All salaries are ranked from high to low (excluding the highest paid person), which is used to calculate the median.

Once the median and highest paid person are known, we apply the following formula: [Total remuneration of highest paid person] / [median annual total remuneration for all employees]

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

There are no limitations when calculating this data point. The 100% subsidiary Brabotech is not included in this calculation.

103 (a)

Number of incidents of discrimination, including inappropriate behaviour, in the most recent reporting period.
Number of incidents related to discrimination: Discrimination is defined as when someone is treated less favourably than another person in a comparable situation is (or would be) treated, and the reason for this is a specific characteristic that the person has and that is one of the ‘grounds for protection’. This also includes indirect discrimination, which disadvantages entire groups of people.

Number of incidents related to discrimination: [Reports in the category of discrimination, as reported to the risk office for the 2024 financial year].
For the 2024 financial year (and prior to that) confidential counsellors must report all reports they have received to the compliance officer. The statement to the compliance officer contains the numbers per category of report (i.e. the nature of the report). The compliance officer provides a quarterly statement of the number of (anonymised) reports in the quarterly CRO report.

Van Wanrooij and BraboTech are not part of this reporting procedure. We extrapolate the incidents for these two subsidiaries based on the number of incidents of discrimination and the ratio of employees.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

However, the statement on discrimination does not distinguish between the types of discrimination, something the ESRS requests in Article 102.

103 (b)

Number of complaints submitted through channels for persons who are among Heijmans' own employees to raise concerns (including complaint mechanisms).
Number of reports received via Heijmans' reporting procedures (e.g. via confidential counsellors or compliance officers) by its own employees in the reporting period. It is also possible to make a report via an external and anonymous reporting programme.

For the 2024 financial year (and prior to that) confidential counsellors must report all reports they have received to the compliance officer. The report to the compliance officer contains the numbers per category of report (i.e. the nature of the report). The compliance officer provides a quarterly report of the number of reports (to the compliance officer and confidential counsellors combined) to the Risk department for inclusion in the quarterly CRO report.

Van Wanrooij and BraboTech are not part of this reporting procedure. We extrapolate the incidents for these two subsidiaries based on the number of incidents and the ratio of employees.

No assumptions are made for the calculation of this data point.

The only limitation is when a colleague does not report an incident to Heijmans.

103 (c)

Total amount in fines related to reported incidents and complaints.
Complaints and incidents as in line with 102 (a) and (b).

As soon as a fine is imposed, we add up the amount in euros to arrive at a total.
