Protect your business premises based on VRKI risk classes!
Do you want to ensure that your business premises meet the correct security standards and insurance requirements?
A thorough risk assessment based on the VRKI (Verbeterde Risicoklassenindeling) not only helps you secure your property more effectively but also convinces insurers of the effectiveness of your measures.
Make sure you protect your valuable assets appropriately!
Why is the VRKI important?
For many insurance policies, it is a requirement to implement security measures tailored to the VRKI risk class of your business premises.
The VRKI assesses the burglary risk and provides a clear view of the security measures needed for your specific situation.
Recommended security measures based on VRKI:
- Mechanical Security
Think of quality locks, reinforced doors, windows with burglary-resistant glass, and anti-burglary provisions. - Electronic Security
Install alarm systems connected to a control room, CCTV systems, and access control such as keycards or biometric systems. - Surveillance
Depending on the risk class, 24/7 surveillance by a security company may be required. - Physical Barriers
Place fences, barriers, or other obstacles to prevent unauthorized access to the premises. - Value Storage
For businesses with valuable goods, certified safes or secure storage areas are necessary.
How do I find a certified security company?
Engaging a certified security company ensures that your risk assessment is carried out accurately and that the right measures are implemented. This not only increases the safety of your business premises but also facilitates the insurance process, as you meet the insurer’s requirements.

Who is responsible for the VRKI (Improved Risk Classification)?
The “Verbeterde Risicoklassenindeling” (VRKI) is managed by the Stichting Nationale Inbraak Preventie Weken (NIPW) in cooperation with the Centrum voor Criminaliteitspreventie en Veiligheid (CCV). The CCV is responsible for drafting, managing, and updating the VRKI.
On the CCV website (www.hetccv.nl), you can find extensive information about the VRKI, including the latest version and related documents. There is also a handy VRKI tool available, allowing companies to easily calculate their VRKI risk class.
