The term of office of the current members will come to an end on 1 July 2022. The ABP is therefore organizing elections in April 2022 for a new batch of representatives in the Accountability Body (VO). You are entitled to vote if you are a participant or retiree of ABP on 1 February 2022. In that case you can also participate as a candidate.

More information about the accountability body can be found here.
More information about the elections can be found here.

Why would you nominate yourself?

We can be brief about that. As a VO member, you represent the interests of all three million participants at ABP. As a trade union member of one of the AC government unions (NCF, Justice Union Juvox, VPW, VCPS and De Unie) in the accountability body, you represent the interests of these people.

How do you nominate yourself?

Would you like to apply as a member of the trade union federation AC (which includes the AC government unions)? Send an extensive CV based on the profile sketch (see below) and a letter of motivation to secretariat@sgbacrijk.nl stating 'Elections ABP'. Let us know for which section you are applying: active or retired.
As a pensioner at ABP, you stand for election for a seat on behalf of the 'Pensioners' electoral group. And as an active participant, you put yourself up for election for a seat on behalf of the 'Participants' electoral group. The nomination on behalf of the trade union (AC) will then take place in the period from 13 December 2021 to 28 January 2022.

If you want to put yourself forward as a candidate through the trade union AC, we as AC government unions have some additional requirements. You already have some basic knowledge about pensions, as evidenced by the SPO training(s) you have followed. In addition, as AC Government Unions, we think it is important that both you as a candidate and the AC Government Unions have a clear picture of what can be expected from each other. Part of the procedure is therefore that you as a candidate are approached for an interview by a current AC member of the ABP accountability body.

Where can I go with questions about the procedure, the candidacy or if I need more?

want to know about the work of the AC in the accountability body?

In that case, send an email to secretariat@sgbacrijk.nl with your phone number. We will then contact you.
