Article 9: CONFIDENTIAL CONTACT PERSON

We would like to welcome you to ARJ Trainings, where your health and well-being are our top priority. As your counselor at ARJ, we'd like to share some important procedures and guidelines with you to ensure that everyone experiences a safe and respectful environment.

At ARJ Trainingen, we take any form of misconduct seriously. If you witness inappropriate behavior or feel uncomfortable, we encourage you to report it to our staff immediately. We ensure that all complaints are confidential
treated.

My name is Lorenzo and I am the confidential contact person within ARJ Trainingen

What does a confidential contact person do?

The counselor listens to someone's story and helps them look for opportunities to resolve the situation. He or she can help someone file a complaint with the association, sports association or police, but you can also just talk.
Especially in the event of more serious incidents, the help of a counselor is highly desirable and the support provided is experienced as pleasant. The counselor treats information confidentially and does nothing without the knowledge of the person concerned. Our counselors are bound by confidentiality about what they are told, unless there is a danger or a compelling reason to break this secrecy.

A confidential contact person is the first point of contact for sexual harassment situations within an association. This includes, for example:

• Continued comments with a sexual nature;
• Unwanted touches
• Sexual assault;
• Rape;
• Sexual abuse.

When this happens to someone, they are often left with a lot of questions and emotions. A confidential contact person can then help by listening. You can contact us anonymously and information is always kept confidential.
A process with a confidential contact person looks like this:
• Together with a reporter, the confidential contact person tries to find out what they would like to see happen.
• From a notification, the confidential contact person informs about possible next steps.
• In addition, the confidential contact person provides process guidance and advises the association involved.

Discrimination, tease and verbal harassment

Transgressive behavior does not always have a sexual character. Verbal harassment and abuse of power can also occur and have a major impact on individuals and associations. In addition, people who are guilty of discrimination also cross a clear line.

There is also no place for these forms of behavior within ARJ Trainings. Do you recognize this because you are dealing with it yourself? Then we would love to have you
assisting in stopping this behavior..
