Doors open for status holders in insulation technology
The director of IC Beverwijk, Hans Kramer, introduced the candidates from Beverwijk to the world of insulation technology. Hans has employees with different cultures working within his company and the experiences are very positive. Even an employee from former Yugoslavia has worked his way up to the position of Chief Workshop.
Herbert Bos of Welzijn Beverwijk, together with Techport is trying to speed up the bridge to work in engineering. Status holders are allowed to work immediately, in principle they do not have to wait for guidance from the UWV, after they have settled in. This offers opportunities for several status holders and companies.
In any case, the nine candidates responded very enthusiastically to the company visit IC Beverwijk. A number of interested candidates were offered to visit the company in the near future where they can gain work experience for a day. This way, the candidates can really experience whether the work suits what they are looking for, but also whether they can use the skills they have gained in their country of origin.
Good entry into organization through various opportunities
IC Beverwijk offers work at various locations both at home and abroad. The work is varied, the language is not an issue, one learns this fastest on the work floor. What they find very important is that you can count on each other. Think of arriving on time and coordination with each other.
The company offers new employees an induction program and good on-the-job supervision. In addition, there is room to combine work and learning. In this way, IC Beverwijk offers many opportunities to enter the organization and is an example for many other companies in the technical sector that want to give status holders a chance to learn the technical profession in the Netherlands.
