Looking for a job

Support from Werkplein

Are you looking for a job but having trouble finding work? The Werkplein Hart van West-Brabant has a Werkpunt & Inburgering team that can help you with this. Read below to see which situation applies to you and how Werkpunt & Inburgering can help you.

Are you receiving benefits from Werkplein?

The Werkpunt and Inburgering team will then help you find a job or volunteer work.

They do this for various groups of residents. That is why this team has different divisions. The Job Agreement division, for example, focuses on residents who have been referred to the Job Agreement program. And the Integration team helps status holders find work. For those who cannot start a paid job right away, there is a volunteer work team. And, of course, they are also there for all other residents receiving benefits.

Are you not receiving benefits from Werkplein but do have a job placement referral?

You will then receive the same assistance as anyone who does receive benefits.

We also provide support even if you are not applying for or receiving benefits

Anyone looking for work can take the “On the Path to Employment” training course at Werkplein. Call Werkplein for more information or visitthe Werkplein Hart van West-Brabant website. You can find the contact information on the contact page.

Be sure to check out the Werkcentrum West-Brabant website for information and job openings.
