Vitaal Verder

What Vitaal Verder does

Vitaal Verder is a Dutch occupational health and safety service company (Arbodienst) headquartered in Oldenzaal, Netherlands, founded in 2012 and operating with approximately 40 professionals. The company delivers the full Arbo service portfolio to Dutch employers in the Noord-Oost Nederland region and nationally, spanning Arbodienstverlening (absenteeism management and bedrijfsarts consults), Arbeidsdeskundige diensten (work capacity assessments and reintegration advice), and Re-integratie & Mobiliteit (second-track reintegration, outplacement, career orientation). Adjacent offerings include RI&E risk inventories, Rijbewijskeuring medical exams for C/D drivers, Expatkeuring, support for Eigen Risicodragers under the Ziektewet/WGA, on-site Casemanager op locatie placements, CSR burn-out coaching, and the Vitaal Verder Academie training program.

The operational backbone is built on a self-developed Planningsagenda platform that powers both appointment scheduling and the Werkgeversportaal (employer portal), with case management integrated via the Absentiemanager software partner. Assessment methodology relies on licensed instruments: CVI Kernwaardenanalyse for core values matching, CSR-Methode under an exclusive partnership with CSR Centrum for burn-out recovery, MELBA and SCL-90-S for Haalbaarheidsonderzoek (feasibility studies), and Werkscan for sustainable employability. The company holds ISO 9001 and RCA certifications (audited by RvA) and team credentials include NVVA, SRA, HOBÉON, and Blik op Werk registrations.

Revenue is generated primarily through quote-based annual subscription retainers for Arbodienstverlening, professional services fees for arbeidsdeskundige and reintegration work, fee-for-service pricing on Rijbewijskeuring, and training fees from the Academie. GTM is sales-led with direct field sales to employers, supported by a regional Servicebureau and an on-location casemanager deployment option. The company competes in a regulated Dutch market where RCA certification is mandatory, positioning itself on personal contact, clear advice, and certified methodology rather than technology differentiation or scale.
