More on the subject

The Netherlands faces profound social and economic challenges: the energy transition, affordable healthcare, sufficient housing, and safeguarding our security. The success of these ambitions begins with one crucial factor: a strong and future-proof labor market. The recent report by Peter Wennink underscores that the Netherlands must opt for talent that enables economic growth and technological relevance. In addition, the report emphasizes that labor productivity, digital and technical skills, up- and reskilling, and a well-considered balance between security and flexibility are essential to realize the major challenges facing the Netherlands.
