Redundancy Committee. In 2016 the parties to the collective agreement set up a redundancy committee for the higher professional education sector in order for this committee to deal with applications for dismissal for commercial reasons. The committee was set up for a limited period of time. During this period the parties to the collective agreement compare the experience gained in the redundancy committee with the experience gained in the UWV (Employee Insurance Agency, Uitvoeringsinstituut Werknemersverzekeringen) dismissal procedure in other public sectors. The pros and the cons of both routes and the costs involved are taken in consideration for the evaluation. The parties to the collective agreement seek to make an informed decision, at the latest in April 2020 on whether the redundancy committee will be continued or not. Participation Act (Participatiewet) The Participation Act has as its purpose to offer persons with an occupational impairment an opportunity for regular work. As employers with a public task, universities of applied sciences consider themselves to be socially responsible for doing their utmost to make the labour organization as inclusive as possible7. Trade unions and employers take this joint responsibility seriously and will include provisions in the collective agreement that will enhance the goals of the Participation Act. Parties agree that persons with an occupational impairment will be paid in conformity with scale 1 of the collective agreement for the universities of applied sciences. The parties to the collective agreement recommend that each university of applied sciences should see to it that it provides of up-to-date welfare regulations. The parties to the collective agreement work actively on the continuation of the dialogue at universities of applied sciences. Scope for the professional is inextricably linked with promoting a professional culture and it is a vital precondition for realizing fulfilling employment relations. Together with the fund, parties to the collective agreement promote and support the labour market policy, professionalization policy and health policy in the sector. The fund stimulates innovation in these three areas, compatible with developments in education and society. Both employers’ and employees’ organizations in higher professional education are represented in the board of Zestor. Parties are equally represented in Zestor, which is reflected in the choice to subjects and in the elaboration of these subjects.
