Benefit Beneficiary Platform (PLUG)
PLUG is featured AObmembers who receive benefits. This concerns colleagues who, for example, are unemployed and receive unemployment benefits or people with disabilities who are on disability benefits or wia. Good representation of the interests of benefit recipients is for the AOb important.
The PLUG board has a number of core tasks:
- To represent the collective interests of the group of benefit recipients by acting as a sounding board for the union board
- Encouraging participation in (decentralized) client councils of the UWV
- Support colleagues who will receive benefits
- Maintaining a national network of disability counselors (volunteers) of the AOb. These counselors provide social and emotional support to members who are in a disability scheme. They are there for them, among other things, when talking to an insurance doctor and/or employment expert from the UWV
- Ensuring acquisition, training and coaching of the WIA supervisors
- Support for the WIA supervisors, so that they can respond adequately to the requests of the Legal Department (AJD) and the trade union consultants (VBC)
