Beleidmatig

Beleidmatig is a Dutch adjective derived from the words "beleid" (meaning policy, management, or conduct) and the suffix "-matig", which forms adjectives indicating a characteristic or manner. The term is used to describe actions, decisions, or behaviors that are in accordance with established policies, guidelines, or management decisions.

In a business context, an employee might be described as taking a "beleidmatig" approach to a problem, meaning they are following the company's official procedures rather than acting on their own initiative. Similarly, in government or public administration, an action can be called "beleidmatig" if it adheres to the official regulations and directives.

The word is often used to indicate something is done in a standard, official, or prescribed manner. It can sometimes carry a neutral or slightly negative connotation, suggesting that something is done by the book but perhaps without much creativity or personal judgment. For example, a "beleidmatig" response might be seen as predictable or lacking in innovation.

Synonyms for "beleidmatig" include "voorschriftsgemeld" (as per instructions) or "regulair" (regular or official). The opposite, "onbeleidmatig", refers to actions that are not in line with policy or management decisions.
