Home Services Mobility policies
How do you want your employees to travel? Don’t you have a preference or would you like to gently push them in a certain direction? Will you reimburse travel expenses, or are they supposed to pay for it themselves? And what about parking and working from home? The answers to these and other questions determine your mobility policies, which provide clarity for your employees, customers, suppliers, and other parties you deal with. We help you develop or update your mobility policies.
Hybrid working, parking policy, fleet, and bicycle potential. This and all other aspects will be covered to create a comprehensive policy.
For years, we have been assisting employers in updating, adapting, or completely overhauling their mobility policies. We have learned a great deal from this. We understand how to get support for your new policies and know which steps are necessary, even though they may initially seem unnecessary. These are the key features of our approach:
We align your policies with your company’s identity. For example, emission-fraud diesel doesn’t match a sustainable company. This could include a proper bicycle scheme if vitality and health are important. We, therefore, want to know your intrinsic motivation. Why do you want new policies? What image does your organisation want to portray? And how about linking your mobility to your working-from-home policy?
We approach mobility comprehensively. This means we take into account all aspects of mobility that are important to your company, whether it’s bicycle parking or leasing a car, a company car, mobility cards, or a fuel card. And what about working from home?
We do not shape and develop our policies; they are yours, your organisation’s. We ensure support by involving employees, the works council, departments, and other stakeholders if and when necessary.
We will create a plan for you to get started: new policies with ready-made solutions and measures that you can implement step by step. We calculate each measure’s impact on the organisation (including costs and time commitment).
Els (1979) found her way into the HR world after studying cultural anthropology and following HR training. She specialised in the more 'hard' side of HR. Processes, systems and data. Ensuring that the fundamentals for employees are well-organised smartly. She first got involved in mobility on her HR agenda at the OLVG hospital in Amsterdam. Innovative mobility policies became an important employment condition due to a growing shortage of healthcare professionals and an overheated housing market in a city as Amsterdam. Under Els' HR Services Manager leadership, a new mobility policy was developed in 2021. Her interest and enthusiasm for the field of mobility, as well as her collaboration with 3PM, were born here. She has been working as a consultant for 3PM since 2023.
Paul (1973) is a business-savvy consultant in sustainable mobility. He assists employers and governments in achieving sustainability goals concerning mobility. This could involve promoting cycling and implementing shared mobility or Zero Emission Urban Logistics, always with a broad perspective and a connecting approach. Paul was involved in establishing the Institute for Sustainable Mobility and served as the program manager for "Het Nieuwe Rijden". He also worked with governments on promoting cycling for a sustainable shift in behavioural change. Before that, he was a supply chain manager in the aviation, food, pharmaceutical, and automotive industries. He had been working with 3PM for several years and became a partner in early 2019.
Laurens (1981) connects 3PM with the creative world. Thanks to his background in the creative sector, he translates our ideas and ambitions - as well as those of our clients - into new solutions. He developed, together with Soigneur Agency, the Fietspas010, the ‘ikfietsbeschaafd’ campaign and podcast series ‘Het Fietspadgesprek’. He founded Rodesk 2012, a digital design agency specialising in UX design. At the end of 2019, he sold Rodesk to focus on sustainable mobility and fully promote cycling.
Roel (1967) holds a degree in econometrics. The hard side of the economy, we could say. He learned to create models and forecasts of transportation flows. But above all, he knew how to analyse effectively, draw connections, and make complex issues understandable. Roel knows his way around numbers. But he is also happy to write things down for you. Even more so, he prefers to assist you in getting your people to work sustainably and healthily. In his first job at Rijkswaterstaat, he worked on calculations for the Betuweroute and the locks of IJmuiden. After that, mobility remained his area of expertise at KPMG. He worked on consulting projects involving market liberalisation in public transportation and the merger between NS Cargo and Deutsche Bahn.
Sustainability. More specifically, sustainable mobility. Tobias’ (1977) favourite topic. The knowledge that travelling can be a lot smarter and cleaner. During his Technical Public Administration study at the University of Twente, he specialised in the societal impacts of mobility. How do we move around, and what does that mean for us and our environment? He learned how to develop robust business cases and cost-benefit analyses for these matters at the economic consulting firm Decisio in Amsterdam. His focus moved to employee mobility. He helped hundreds of employers with his team - from production companies to non-profit organisations - with commuting to and from work questions. He left Decision in 2012 to work together with Roel, the foundation of 3PM.
