SNF affiliated
With the SNF certificate we meet the housing standard for expats and labour migrants.
Stichting Normering Flexwonen manages the register of organisations that meet the housing standard for labour migrants and enforces this standard at the same time. Organisations that offer housing to labour migrants have the possibility to obtain the SNF certificate. To do so, they must meet the housing standard for labour migrants. Housing locations of organisations that register with the foundation are checked annually. If the quality of the housing proves to be insufficient, the company must improve it. If the organisation does not manage to rectify the situation in the short term, the company is removed from the SNF register.
The aim is to give parties involved in the housing of labour migrants – municipalities, employers, employees, local residents – certainty that the housing of labour migrants is adequate.
Every year these organisations undergo an administrative inspection to check whether all locations have been registered with SNF and whether the requirements of good employment practices and supervision and management have been met. During the year, all locations for which the organisation itself is responsible (First Responsible) are inspected for compliance with all SNF standards. The standard includes the components space and privacy, sanitary facilities, safety and hygiene, facilities, information provision, fire safety, supervision and management. Each part consists of a number of specific requirements that the accommodation must meet.
