Employers and government ahead of job appointments participation Act – NU.nl

writes Secretary Jetta Klijnsma Wednesday in a letter to parliament.

This means that employers and the government ahead of the arrangements laid down in the social agreement. It was agreed that there should be 25.5 hours at nine thousand jobs.

The participation Act, resulting from the social agreement, it was agreed that both public and private parties in 2026 gradually create 125,000 extra jobs for people with occupational disabilities. The market should provide 100,000 jobs and government occupies 25,000 jobs at its expense.

For 2015, employers had to provide six thousand jobs. There have been 15 604. The objective of the number of jobs in the public sector was on three thousand jobs. Ultimately, it achieved 5,453 jobs.

Not all new jobs

The total number of 21 057 jobs, however, is not equivalent to the number of people helped into work. A proportion of people with a work disability who already worked at a company or government has to work more hours. This is included in the measurement as a new job. Some of the jobs are taken by people who are from the sheltered workshop.

How many people are helped just a new job, the Department does not know.

Welcome

State Klijnsma welcomed the figures. According to her employers are going much more to think about how people with occupational disabilities still can compete in society. That is also the fine that awaits them if they do not meet the objectives.

That fine Klijnsma not now need to hand out. However, the employers and the government should continue to work on the employment of this group of people.

More effort

In particular, the government should make more effort in this area, says Klijnsma Wednesday in an explanation of the Letter. The number of people with disabilities which is employed in the public sector is in fact decreased by 984. The number of temporary staff and secondments of people with disabilities has increased by 6,437.

Ministries and local authorities must respect what Klijnsma another go well think that the latter does not deserve tenure
