A first "light" version of the on-line application is available. Employers who have recruited a long-term job seeker since 1 January 2017 can henceforth apply for their incentive on-line.
The application for the incentive has to be made electronically, individually per worker concerned and only via the website of the department of Employment and Social Economy Department. Since 19 April 2017, the first version of that on-line application is available.
In the start-up phase, which runs from 19 April to 30 June 2017, this is a light version:
The application is registered but the data is not automatically exchanged with other databases yet. Therefore, in the on-line work flow:
Go to www.werk.be, ‘online diensten’ (on-line services), ‘Aanwervingsincentive voor langdurig werkzoekenden’ (Recruitment incentive for long-term job-seekers) (http://www.werk.be/awi).
Final check with approval/rejection of applications during the start-up phase will take place not earlier than in July, and payment not earlier than in September - Read more.
The Flemish government is further developing a fully operational on-line application, and provides for two successive phases:
The application deadline for the incentive is:
The competent minister may extend the application deadline in the start-up and/or downstream phase. It is generally expected that this will be done. We will keep you duly informed.
In the beginning of March, the Employment and Social Economy Department has launched a web page containing information on the application procedure and a web form, allowing the employer to register his details. Employers who have completed the web form receive a personalised message of the Employment and Social Economy Department containing information on the application procedure by 19 April at the earliest.
Please note that the registration will not serve as an application. Registered employers will have to go through the application procedure for every worker concerned at the earliest from 19 April.
