Trade and Industry Needs More Migrants
In order to secure the income of Dutch Trade and Industry, a healthy job market is essential. For that purpose, the Netherlands needs labour migrants. Employers’ organizations VNO-NCW and MKB-Nederland have stated this in a report which was written together with other organizations and Dutch businesses and sent to the government.
With an ageing population and shortages in trained staff in sight, the Netherlands should try to remain an appealing country for labour migrants. “This will produce economic growth and it will be beneficial to the prosperity and well-being of the entire country.”
“It is important to an employer to be able to select the best candidate from an as large as possible selection”. Employers’ organizations point out that if the right people are able to be freely chosen for the right jobs, it will be beneficial for the productivity, innovation and the earning power of the Dutch trade and industry.

Kirsten Jansen - van den Broek Undutchables
We have worked with Together Abroad as advertisers since their inception in 2009.
During this time, we have found them to be very responsive to our needs and very pleasant people to work with.
I would certainly recommend them as reliable and responsive business partners with an eye to the market and having their fingers on the pulse of the Dutch employment sector.
