Everyone has a job or meaningful daytime activity. It's the ideal picture. But the practice is often different.
Do the municipalities in Limburg know how to get people with a distance to the labor market back into work again? This question is central to a long-term study by Maastricht University. People with a distance to the labor market usually live on benefits. They are out of work because of a physical or mental disability, lack of diplomas or other reasons.
Every municipality has its own approach to help this group with a good daytime activity. But what works and what doesn't? Maastricht University is investigating this at 2 Limburg municipalities.
The L1 programme L1 Vandaag hosts a special week about this topic.
