The labour market is changing rapidly. There is a shortage of well-trained staff, especially in the energy, health and high-tech sectors. Moreover, there is still a mismatch, with jobseekers, workers and students often lacking the most up-to-date skills that match the rapidly changing practice. The Human Capital Agreement brings parties together to tackle these challenges together. By working together, we ensure a better match between supply and demand and create new opportunities for employees and employers alike.

Read how we are building a future-proof labour market together.
Working together on solutions
With the Human Capital Agreement, we are building a future-proof labour market. We do this by stimulating lifelong development, supporting companies in finding talent and investing in innovation in education and training. Thanks to the involvement of dozens of partners, we are making a real impact.
Initiatives with an impact on talent and work
Within the Human Capital Agreement, we work on solutions that make a real difference. By investing together in programmes and projects that narrow the gap between talent and work, we strengthen the regional labour market step by step.
Initiatives such as Labour Market Coaches and the Labour Match Platform show how we train people practically and link them directly to sectors with major shortages, such as engineering and energy transition. Also, with projects on technology promotion and talent development in the semicon sector, we are building a region where companies can grow and people get opportunities.
Human Capital Agreement in focus
The power of cooperation
To achieve a future-proof labour market, cooperation is essential. Governments, companies and educational institutions work together on concrete solutions within the Human Capital Agreement. By combining knowledge and resources, we ensure that the Arnhem Nijmegen region remains an attractive place to work and do business.
Within the Lifeport Welcome Centre, for instance, work is done to attract and retain international talent and labour market coaches connect employers with the right candidates. All with one goal: a strong labour market that works for everyone.
