Call to protect unemployment benefits for parents caring for disabled children
Official title: Voorstel van resolutie betreffende de dringende opschorting van de uitsluiting van de werkloosheidsuitkering voor ouders die als mantelzorger optreden voor hun kind met een handicap en de invoering van een aangepast sociaal statuut.
Status: Parliament has approved this proposal. (parliament: ‘Adopted in plenary session’)
In plain language
- This proposal urges the Brussels government to ask the federal government to suspend the exclusion from unemployment benefits for parents caring for a child with a disability.
- It focuses on unemployed parents who care for a child with a disability and are therefore unable to work regular jobs.
- If the federal government follows this request, you will keep your unemployment benefits and a proper social status for informal carers will be developed.
