New unemployment benefit act to stop fraud monitoring.

People who receive unemployment or sickness benefits can withhold information about their income with impunity. The Work and Security law (Wet Werk en Zekerheid, WWZ) will go into effect on 01 July 2015.

Trouw revealed this on Saturday, 30 May 2015. This law is a replacement of the Unemployment Benefits Act (werkloosheidswet, WW), but it will continue to exist for those who request it until 01 July”, said a spokesman of the UWV to NU.nl. Under this new law, people’s income will automatically be deducted from the data that the UWV and tax authorities have.

The UWV told Trouw that they no longer want to fine people who make mistakes in their income statements. “We will have a serious talk in terms of large amounts, but no, no penalties”. However, fraud monitoring will remain in force for other laws.

For an expat moving to the Netherlands, getting the right direction is very important. It's important that one knows which steps and direction to take. Linda is an exceptionally talent counselor, her advice has helped me land a job within a week of coming to the Netherlands. I am grateful for her mentoring and look forward to a great working relationship in the future.

Dr. Hrishiraj S | Clinical Research & Affairs Manager

Together Abroad provided expert advice on personal branding including developing a top-notch, market-aware CV, highly tailored job applications, and approach strategies with potential employers in the Netherlands. Furthermore, I found them be highly knowledgeable in key related fields such as recruitment strategy, immigration law, contracts, labor agreements, and (un)employment benefits. I would recommend Together Abroad to anyone who needs professional help with transitioning to a new career.

Linda is a big mind. She thinks about things that the rest normally overlook. The insight she has about the dutch job market can only be achieved through years of experience and persistence.

Her business savvy is complemented by her mastery of understanding the client's needs and requirements. For my career I could say, she was the “Mary Poppins”, who guided me through thick and thin and helped me to land a career in the Netherlands

S. Bhattacharjee | FP&A Manager

If you are going to enlist the services of a "Career Coach" look no further. The only person you want in your corner is Linda van Orsouw. As an expat, you absolutely want to work with a highly skilled and knowledgeable professional who knows their way around the Dutch career/employment/job market. Linda assisted me in writing and positioning my CV, helped me organize and prioritize my list of opportunities, coached me through mock interviews and was there when I got offered a senior position only 2 months later. When asked I will only refer to Linda and "Togetherabroad".
