According to the findings of the Netherlands Working Conditions Survey 2009, social support by colleagues and supervisors, the number of conflicts and the prevalence of workplace violence strongly determine the social climate at work.

It will be difficult to identify...

We laten zien dat er, ondanks harde concurrentieverhoudingen, ondernemers zijn die willen investeren in personeel dat niet onmiddellijk maximaal inzetbaar is. Afhankelijk van hun aanpak blijkt het goed mogelijk om relatief veel mensen met een afstand tot de arbeidsmarkt in te zetten op schoonmaaklocaties. Bovendien kan de inzet van doelgroepen...

Long-term work absence is an issue of concern among employers and employees in the Netherlands. Disparities between occupations in terms of sick leave cannot be explained by differences in the characteristics of the workers, the job, the company or the working conditions. After adjusting for these factors, occupation remains an independent...
