| | support department | Explanation:
A stafafdeling is a department that provides support to the core business departments. It generally consists only of cost centres rather than profit centres (i.e. it costs the revenue-generating departments money and has no revenue streams of its own).
-> "Omdat in de lijnorganisatie alles via de lijn loopt, raken lijnmanagers snel overbelast. Ook wordt van ze verwacht dat ze op alle gebieden – van personeelszaken tot automatisering – deskundig zijn, wat in de praktijk natuurlijk niet kan. Om deze lijnmanagers te ondersteunen en te adviseren zijn stafdiensten in het leven geroepen. De lijnhiërarchie verandert hierdoor niet; de stafdiensten werken voor het hele bedrijf of een deel van het bedrijf, maar zijn niet ondergeschikt aan de afdelingen. Ze staan “buiten de lijn”. Veel voorkomende stafdiensten zijn personeelszaken, financiën en automatisering."
