More information about the themes
We had a training from SBI Formaat as a new Works Council and the experience was fantastic. The trainer had no problem creating training in English and she picked us up where we were. It was really tailored to our needs and will be useful to our Works Council operations.
We plan to work with SBI Formaat again in the future.

Sometimes you are confronted with complex topics. Do you need support and act quickly? SBI Formaat’s experts can help you. Our consultants are thorough and effective.
Works Council Act for starters
As a newly elected works council member you have a lot to deal with. It is important to know what the task, role and position is of the Works Council and what possibilities a Works Council has to influence company decisions and policies and to achieve results. It is important for you to get up to speed quickly, so that you can take up your own place in the works council and become an effective member of this forum of employees’ representatives.
This training will give you insight into the role and function, and into the rights and obligations of the Dutch Works Council, as well as some practical working methods for an effective functioning.
Employment, decent work for all and social protection
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s), which are an urgent call for action by all countries – developed and developing – in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.
SBI Format contributes to SDG’s goals. Growth, work and opportunities for everyone.
