Dutch to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / Dutch employment contract
Dutch term or phrase: leefregels
This is taken from an employment contract:

De **leefregels** van XXX zijn van toepassing, met uitzondering van **leefregel** 12 "Procedureregeling functiewaardering", **leefregel** 15 "Richtlijnen bezuldigingsbeleid"...

A bit of s strange term in the context IMO. I am inclined to translate it as Company Regulations. Any opinions?

TIA
