# The 32 largest Public Safety companies in the Netherlands

Tamtam tracks 32 Public Safety companies headquartered in the Netherlands. This list ranks all of them by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Politieacademie, DEKRA Nederland and Veiligheidsregio Rotterdam-Rijnmond. Their median headcount is 475. Half of them were founded in 2009 or later. The most common headquarters are 's-Hertogenbosch (2), Apeldoorn (2) and Arnhem (2).

These Dutch public safety organizations are mainly large regional bodies responsible for emergency services, crisis management, and public health. They include police training academies, such as Politieacademie, which trains police officers, and technical safety consultancies like DEKRA Nederland, which focuses on testing and certifying products. The majority are safety regions coordinating fire brigades, ambulance services, and disaster response.

Examples include Veiligheidsregio Rotterdam-Rijnmond, which handles ambulance care and fire services, and Veiligheidsregio Utrecht, focused on firefighting and crisis management. Many of these organizations, such as Veiligheidsregio Noord-Holland Noord and Veiligheidsregio Groningen, were established in the 2000s and 2010s, indicating a relatively recent structuring of regional safety coordination.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 13, 2026.
