Nederland65Plus Uitzendbureau

Nederland65plus Uitzendbureau BV is a national uitzendorganisatie whose entire proposition is built around workers aged 65 and over. Its mission, as the company states it, is to support the labour market with the knowledge, experience and flexibility of 65-plussers. The organisation works through regional bureaus so that contact between ondernemers and uitzendkrachten stays close, which it says gives it a better feel for what both employers and temporary workers want. The company states that more than 11,000 people over 65 are already at work.

The site is organised around two routes. Employers use Ik zoek personeel to find experienced, motivated and capable staff, while candidates use Ik zoek werk to register free of charge and without obligation. Alongside vacancies and an FAQ, the company runs a Kennisbank covering wetgeving en kosten, with sections on arbeidsmarkt en trends, economische voordelen and praktijkinzichten listed as coming soon. One point it explains in detail is that someone over 65 may earn as much as they like alongside their AOW without any reduction to AOW or pension, though it advises thinking through the effect on any subsidies received.

The company is registered at Braamberg 12, 3894 EK Zeewolde, and is reachable on 085 822 3388 or at [email protected], with a section of the site given over to Ronald Meerman. Its workers describe the appeal in their own words: picking up an old trade again, making people happy with their knowledge and experience, working with new colleagues and new techniques, and being valued for enthusiasm and drive rather than age. For employers the pitch is straightforward, that working with 65-plussers works, and that this experience is available nationally through regional bureaus.
