EVRM is the Dutch abbreviation for the European Convention on Human Rights.
What it means in Dutch business
EVRM appears in Dutch judgments when business, tax, privacy or public-law disputes raise rights-based arguments. For The Polder reader, the term is useful when it explains what must be checked in the Dutch file, who carries responsibility and how a public rule or signal reaches daily business decisions.

Common mistake
EVRM is not a general fairness label. The specific right and legal test have to fit the case.
The Polder reading
The Polder reads EVRM through Governance: not as loose terminology, but as a way to connect court judgments, privacy disputes, tax procedure to the decision a company, adviser or public authority has to defend.
