The limitation of unemployment benefits is bringing thousands of new beneficiaries to the CPAS, a large majority of whom are able to work or undergo training.
David Weytsman (President of MR Brussels Periphery) and Loubna Azghoud (Group Leader in the Brussels Parliament) are calling for faster support, with a first meeting within 15 days, a review within 30 days and a solution after three months.
The MR wants Actiris to play a greater role in "matching" jobseekers with businesses and to actively seek out available vacancies.
The liberals highlight the Brussels paradox: nearly 97,000 jobseekers while around 100,000 vacancies exist in Brussels and its periphery.
David Weytsman is also calling for stronger cooperation between Actiris and the CPAS, notably through a single file, regional monitoring and better data sharing.
The goal is clear: making return to employment an absolute priority and enabling Brussels to move from an employment rate of 64% to 70%.
