Abstract/Citation
This act provides for new regulations that concern persons who are under the age of 65, suffer from physical or mental disabilities and can therefore only work full-time in jobs which are especially suited for them. The Act provides that each community ("gemeente") has the responsibility to provide as many employment opportunities as possible to persons who are considered able to work only in jobs tailored to their needs or capacities. Details of work provision, remuneration and social benefits are further elaborated. The Act will henceforth replace the previous Social Work Provision Act.
