Meldpunt Mores could not be reached on Friday and Saturday for comment on the revealing article of the Volkskrant which writes about misconduct in the editorial office of NOS Sport.
Mores is the reporting point for undesirable behavior in the cultural and creative sector. Chairman is Janke Dekker, who is married to NOS presenter Tom Egbers. He would, according to the article de Volkskrant have been guilty of transgressive and intimidating behaviour.
Dekker recently temporarily ceased her work for Mores. Board member Amber de Vente replaces her. The hotline previously stated that Dekker’s decision is “absolutely unrelated” to the investigation into transgressive behavior at NOS Sport. It is the intention that Dekker will return in April as chairman and face of Mores.
In January, Dekker said on NPO Radio 1 that she would resign immediately if there were reports about herself or family members. “The reputation of the hotline always comes first,” says Dekker. “There can also be complaints about myself. If it is only one that comes out, then I will be held accountable and I will resign.”
The NOS announced in an inventory report on Thursday that reports have been received of bullying, (sexual) intimidation, discrimination, verbal aggression and integrity issues over a period of more than twenty years.
