Corporate Governance
We are a large organisation with an important role in Dutch society. With the Dutch State as our sole shareholder, openness and transparency are very important to us. Although we are not a publicly listed company, we voluntarily apply the Dutch Corporate Governance Code.
Corporate Governance at NS
The Corporate Governance Code at NS is set out in the regulations of the Executive Board, Supervisory Board, Audit Committee, Remuneration Committee and Nomination Committee. It also includes the NS Code of Conduct and the NS Integrity Reporting Procedure.
Within NS, Corporate Governance is implemented in various ways. The Corporate Governance Code does not apply to all parts of the organisation, as NS is not publicly listed and does not have a one-tier board structure. If there are violations of the NS Code of Conduct, suppliers and partners can report these via the Integrity Reporting Point. Customers can report complaints and issues through NS Customer Services.
