Second-Track Reintegration
Reintegration office in Blaricum
If the employee will not be going back to their old role, attention turns to finding work that does sit within their possibilities. We guide that from Blaricummermeent, with Hilversum and Almere each a quarter of an hour away, keeping the file as the UWV requires it at review.

What second track means
Work with another employer, in a region of small companies
If a return to the original role is ruled out and the organisation has nothing suitable internally, the second track comes into force. First what remains feasible is established, then capacity is worked on, and only after that are employers approached. How those stages relate is set out at the second track programme.
On top of the statutory obligation, the scale of employers matters in the Gooi. Sole traders, consultancies and companies of under ten people are common here. The lines are short and a conversation is quickly arranged, but a formal procedure or an HR department is usually absent, and that changes how you prepare a placement.

Second-track reintegration in Blaricum and nearby
Our Blaricum location is on Binnendelta at Blaricummermeent, the business park between the A27 and the Gooimeer. Care, business services and the media companies around Hilversum decide what there is to be found in this corner. After a dismissal the question that comes up here is rarely whether someone will find work, but whether they feel like starting all over once more.
About Blaricum
Good to know about Blaricum
The media sector runs on short contracts
Around Hilversum a great deal turns on productions and assignments of limited duration. People coming out of that are used to switching, but rarely have a long unbroken line on paper that another sector recognises.
Many self-employed people and small firms
Het Gooi holds a striking number of sole traders, consultancies and companies under ten people. That means short lines when you apply and, at the same time, few formal vacancies, so most of what is available is published nowhere.
Care and IT hire year in, year out
The shortages in this region sit in care, IT, engineering and media, which leaves room for someone stepping in without mastering the full picture yet. For a fresh start that matters more than it sounds.
Binnendelta, on the edge of Blaricummermeent
Parking at the door, the A27 exit two minutes away, and Hilversum and Almere both inside a quarter of an hour. Rather not travel, then everything runs by video, the first meeting included.
What the programme looks like
From intake to aftercare, step by step
Everything above adds up to what is called the second track programme. What is fixed is the order; what fills it varies from person to person, and the Gatekeeper Improvement Act governs the paperwork.
Intake meeting and situation overview
The opening conversation maps the whole situation. What the company doctor wrote down, what work the employee did before and what they want now all come up, and with assignment-based work we ask how the rhythm of productions suited them. That results in an action plan meeting the requirements.
Capacity analysis & occupational health assessment
The second stage substantiates capacity in writing. What work is left follows from the FML and the papers alongside it, with pace, hours in a row and responsibility each judged on their own. That outcome becomes the goal of the reintegration plan, with monthly updates to those involved.
Career scan & personal coaching
The career scan is about the employee themselves. Through tests, assignments and conversations their strengths and their limits emerge, summarised in a profile that says something outside their own sector too.
Labour market exploration & job matching
The profile is then measured against what the market is asking. Healthcare, IT and engineering are looking for people here, and Hilversum and Almere are both a quarter of an hour away. If the move is too far in one step, a practical period comes first.
Active job search & network approach
At the placement stage the employee goes out to companies themselves, including those with nothing open. With small employers that often works better than responding to an advertisement. CV, profile and preparation follow the chosen direction, with a review each week.
Aftercare and sustainable placement
The last two months are aftercare. That is when it shows whether the position is sustainable and whether the agreements made beforehand are being kept. Across those weeks the coach can be reached, keeps the reporting current and writes the report that closes the file.
The starting point for guidance
Four points this programme rests on
The review is about what has been recorded. These four points decide in practice whether the file can carry it.
What can the employee still manage?
The occupational health assessment sets the boundaries. In media and business services those sit with pace and with the unpredictability of assignments rather than with physical effort.
Is there room to grow into a role at a small company?
With ten staff a role can shift without a reorganisation being needed. That creates openings, but the agreements about it then have to be set down in writing.
How do you handle short contracts?
In the media corner work is often tied to a production. That is usable for the build-up, but it only really counts once it has been agreed in advance what happens when the assignment ends.
Where is capacity built up?
At a workplace, not from the kitchen table. Weeks in a work experience placement show which rhythm holds and count demonstrably.
What we work towards
The employee has work that falls within their possibilities, with agreements recorded and a file that shows the route taken.
Healthcare, services and media
Why employers in Blaricum and the Gooi work with us
Healthcare, business services and the media companies around Hilversum determine what is on offer here. Much of that work goes by assignment, which sharpens the question of a durable position more than in a sector with permanent contracts.
Short lines when applying
At a company of a few people you are straight through to whoever decides. There is rarely a formal process, though, so whatever is agreed you have to record yourself.
Productions set the rhythm
Around Hilversum a great deal runs on assignments of limited duration. Anyone coming from there is used to switching, and when building up capacity that is both an advantage and a risk.
Healthcare and IT recruit continuously
The shortages in this region sit in healthcare, IT, engineering and media. That leaves room for someone stepping in without yet mastering the whole picture.
Recording happens straight away
What was discussed and what it produced we note the same day, with the date. Reconstructing afterwards is then unnecessary.
Questions from Blaricum and the Gooi
What employers here put to us
How do we determine the right starting point?
The outer limit sits around week 52, and the moment the company doctor indicates the original work is gone, that is your cue. Delay comes off the time available for building up. Stage by stage, the time it takes is described at the duration of a second track programme.
What are the costs of a second-track programme?
That follows from the duration and from what you deploy. Taken on its own, placement covers little ground. Assessment, coaching and a practical period each widen it. The composition and the amount are settled before anything starts.
Does a temporary assignment count as a placement?
As an effort it certainly counts, and for the build-up it is often useful. For a durable solution the UWV looks beyond the assignment itself, so record what is intended once it ends and why this step was the best one at that moment.
How broad is the search area?
As far as capacity allows. Nearby lie Huizen, Laren, Eemnes, Bussum, Naarden and Hilversum, with Almere fifteen minutes off and Amsterdam thirty. Where the line falls is settled before we start.
