De screening
Met een ondertekende arbeidsovereenkomst op zak is er nog één stap te gaan: de pre employment screening. TenneT heeft de maatschappelijke taak om Nederland 24/7 aan te houden. We moeten risico's op verstoringen zoveel mogelijk uitsluiten. Daarom vragen we van elke medewerker minimaal een Verklaring Omtrent Gedrag. Als blijkt dat er geen bezwaren zijn tegen je aanstelling, staat niets jouw start meer in de weg. Voor sommige functies is een VOG niet afdoende en volgt een uitvoerige screening.
