THE STEERING COMMITTEEThe statutes of Bio Suisse state the tasks of the Bio Suisse Steering Committee in detail. The Steering Committee consists of five to nine members, the majority of whom are active organic farmers. Anyone employed by Bio Suisse or maintaining close business relations with Bio Suisse is ineligible. The president is elected by the Assembly of Delegates, as are new members following any resignation.
The Steering Committee allocates responsibilities internally (except for the presidency). Great store is set by the adequate representation of the different production types, the linguistic regions of Switzerland, and both sexes.
The Steering Committee is the Association's strategic decision- making body. Its challenging tasks include the development of the Association's mission statement and business policies (in cooperation with Head Office). The Steering Committee provides leadership to Head Office by formulating verifiable target agreements. Only the Managing Director is entitled to give instructions to Head Office staff directly.
For all members of the Steering Committee, the management of Bio Suisse as a whole has priority over regional, product-specific or other interests.
