Give asymlumseekers legal rights to work!
As you know, asylumseekers in The Netherlands need to wait for a period of 6 months after the start of their asylumprocedure before they get the right to work legally. And when allowed, its only allowed for 24 weeks per year.
Legal experts of the Radboud University Nijmegen and Utrecht Unicersity took the effort to do extensive research on this frustrating situation. Yesterday they presented their research and conclusions at the Symposium ‘Asielzoers en het recht op werk’.
To give a follow-up to these efforts, a consortium of refugee organizations, including Refugee Start Force, employers, UWV and Vluchtelingenwerk already signed the Manifest which aims for legal access to work for all asylum seekers in The Netherlands as of day one without restrictions.
We endorse the Manifest and believe that giving newcomers the right to work will motivate people, enable newcomers to get workexperience, learn our language quicker and integrate easier in our socierty,
