First noticeable change in Royal FloraHolland reorganisation
These modifications of the organisation also involve a reorganisation of personnel. In the past two weeks, employees have been told whether Royal FloraHolland shall continue to have suitable work for them. Lucas Vos explained, "We knew that the reorganisation would have painful consequences for some colleagues. And now that the moment has arrived, I feel them too. They are not departing voluntarily, which is overwhelming. These colleagues have worked with great dedication for years in our cooperative. Their efforts have been extremely valuable and I am very grateful to them."
Now that the organisation is actually changing, employees are experiencing uncertainty again. For example, can the remaining staff cope with the quantity of work? Lucas said, "I am also concerned about the workload, but not just because there are fewer employees. We have sometimes organised the work rather inefficiently. By improving our work processes immediately for our growers, buyers and each other, we can reduce the pressure and better our service provision."
