Easier sharing of contractual staff between local authorities
Official title: Wetsvoorstel tot wijziging van de Nieuwe Gemeentewet en de wet van 8 juli 1976 betreffende de openbare centra voor maatschappelijk welzijn teneinde een ruimere terbeschikkingstelling van het personeel van lokale besturen mogelijk te maken.
Status: Parliament is still discussing this proposal, for example in a committee or while waiting for advice. (parliament: ‘Pending in the Chamber’)
In plain language
- Municipalities, public social welfare centres (CPAS/OCMW), and intermunicipal bodies will be able to temporarily second contractual staff to each other more easily.
- This affects local administrations and their contractual employees, who can be temporarily assigned to another public service while keeping their pay and working conditions.
- For you as a citizen, this does not directly alter your daily routine, but it helps local services manage staff shortages and keep public services running smoothly.
