Code of conduct

Muziekgieterij is a dynamic, open venue that provides a safe environment for artists, staff, guests and visitors. Respect, equality, integrity, openness and consideration for others are key. Undesirable behaviour, such as sexual harassment, aggression, bullying or discrimination, is not tolerated. We take undesirable behaviour seriously and act quickly and appropriately. This message is carried throughout the organisation, from management to backstage.

Safe workplace

Muziekgieterij bears responsibility for a positive and safe working environment in which everyone-whether artist, employee or visitor-can develop. Respect for each other, regardless of origin, belief, sexual orientation, disability or position, is essential. We believe in openness and inclusiveness, which is why undesirable behaviour is unacceptable.

Tailor-made solutions

We take individual situations into account and look for appropriate solutions. Clear rules form the basis, but trust and flexibility are paramount. Everyone involved in Muziekgieterij is expected to respect and propagate these principles during their presence in the venue.

Responsibility for each other

We expect everyone-artists, staff and visitors-to contribute to a positive atmosphere. Inappropriate behaviour should always be addressed, whether directly with the person involved or through third parties.

Supervision and support

Muziekgieterij has appointed a confidential advisor to whom people can turn in case of problems. We collaborate with external experts when necessary and offer professional support in dealing with undesirable behaviour.

Protocol for conflicts

In the event of conflicts or undesirable behaviour, Muziekgieterij listens to all involved, seeks mediation and takes appropriate action if necessary. In extreme cases, a formal warning or even exclusion may follow. Sensitive matters are handled discreetly to safeguard the privacy of those involved.
