Personnel and OrganisationAbsence due to sickness continues to fallTenneT was able to reduce the sickness absence percentage further in 2008, from 3.3 to 3.1 percent. The sickness absence percentage has fallen by one percentage point since 2004. The combination of the intensive reintegration process and TenneT's health policy is bearing fruit.
An SCC pilot project for hired personnel was initiated in the year under review. SCC stands for 'Safety, Health and Environment Checklist for Contractors'. As part of this project the number of accidents occurring during maintenance or office work was registered for the first time. Accidents in the regions and at TenneT's project sites and offices were also recorded. In 2008 there were no accidents that resulted in any of our own employees taking sick leave, although the extended registration method revealed 12 accidents which resulted in hired personnel taking short periods of sick leave.
