The Inspectorate SZW works for fair, healthy and safe working conditions and socio-economic security for everyone.
The corona crisis has a major impact on society and, as such, also on the work of the Inspectorate SZW. The 2021 annual plan therefore does not only deal with the “classic risks” in the field of healthy, safe and fair work.
At a company in the municipality of Zwaag, in the province of Noord-Holland, the Inspectorate SZW found two Ukrainians and three Turks at work who were not allowed to work there. In addition, three Bulgarians were staying in the company at night.
In 2019, the Inspectorate SZW increased its focus on combating unfair employment and labour exploitation. This emerges from the annual report published by the Inspectorate SZW on 14 May 2020. In his foreword, the inspector general mentions the fact that looking back to 2019 seems unreal in the current circumstances. At the same time, it is important to keep connecting past, present and future.
