Labour Expert Assessment in Wajong Reassessment in Rotterdam

In Rotterdam, the labour expert assessment plays a key role in the Wajong reassessment at the UWV office on Hofplein. After the medical assessment by the Rotterdam UWV team, the labour expert evaluates which jobs in the port city or surrounding industries you can still perform, based on your medically determined capacity. Key criteria include residual earning capacity, suitable work in Rotterdam sectors such as logistics or administration, and reintegration opportunities via local employer service points. If your earning capacity exceeds 65%, your benefit ends; otherwise, you retain wage-related or follow-up entitlement. You will receive a questionnaire about education, work history, and skills – complete it honestly and specifically, with examples from the Rotterdam context. Legal basis: Wajong article 13 and Assessment Decree on Disability for Work. Practical tips for Rotterdam residents: prepare an overview of limitations tailored to local jobs, consult your GP in Rotterdam-South or -North, and utilise free legal advice at the Juridisch Loket Rotterdam or the Work Plaza Haven. Many reassessments fail due to insufficient emphasis on functional limitations in urban labour. In case of objection, request a counter-expertise via the Rotterdam UWV; this determines your benefit status and access to regional reintegration programmes.
