"Arbeidsongeschiktheids-verzekering

Wanneer je in de toekomst gedeeltelijk arbeidsgeschikt wordt verklaard, wordt bij de vaststelling van de hoogte van de uitkering rekening gehouden met wat je nog zou kunnen verdienen. Maar als het je niet lukt om dat inkomen te verdienen, dan zal je totale inkomen ernstig dalen. Dit geldt met name voor het moment dat de WIA-vervolguitkering ingaat en de loongerelateerde uitkering (WIA) eindigt. Voor medewerkers die jonger zijn dan 59 jaar is deelname daarom interessant. Met deze verzekering daalt je inkomen tot je 65ste nooit onder de 70% en bouw je pensioen op over het gedeelte dat je arbeidsongeschikt bent."

WGA follow-up benefit
Explanation:
See my reference comment and see also below.

During the first two years of your illness, you and your employer work together to get you back to work as soon as possible. This is something the law requires you to do. Has your occupational disability made it impossible for you to return to work at your full capacity within two years? If so, you will have to deal with the WIA.

There are four possibilities:
1. You are less than 35% occupationally disabled
2. You are partially occupationally disabled (35%-80%)
3. You are fully (80% or more) but not permanently occupationally disabled
4. You are fully (80% or more) and permanently occupationally disabled

(...)

2. You are partially occupationally disabled (35%-80%)
You can continue to do part of your work. You are subject to the “WGA” referred to above. This the Dutch Resumption of Work (Partially Fit Persons) Regulation [regeling Werkhervatting Gedeeltelijk Arbeidsgeschikten] and you receive a limited statutory benefit.

First phase

For the first months (for at least 3 but no more than 24 months), you receive a WGA salary-linked benefit, provided that you worked long enough prior to your first sick day. The duration of a disability benefit is linked to the duration of your employment history. For the first two months, that benefit equals 75%, and then 70% after those two months, of your former salary, up to a certain maximum,1 less 70% of your new salary.

Second phase

After the first phase, you receive a limited benefit. The amount of that benefit depends on whether you are actually earning what the UWV (the Employees’ Insurance Agency) says you are able to earn; this is referred to as your “remaining earning capacity”. There are two possibilities:

a) You are earning less than half of your remaining earning capacity. You receive a low benefit: the WGA follow-up benefit. This is only a percentage of the minimum wage, which usually means a substantial loss of income.

b) You are earning at least 50% of your remaining earning capacity.
You receive the higher WGA supplemental benefit [WGA loonaanvullingsuitkering].
That benefit partially supplements (70%) the difference between your former income and the income that the UWV decides you are able to earn. If you are unsuccessful in earning an amount equal to your remaining earning capacity, your income loss will be even more significant. This will also mean a substantial income loss, even if that loss will be smaller than you would incur when receiving the WGA follow-up benefit.

Both the WGA supplemental benefit and the WGA follow-up benefit are only paid out until you reach the retirement age defined in the Dutch State Pension Act [AOW] (this age is referred to below as the “AOW age”).

Over the course of time, are you doing so well that you are earning 65% or more of the salary you were making before your illness? If so, you will stop receiving your benefit.

@Michael: I can understand your confusion but "WIA-vervolguitkering" and "WGA-vervolguitkering" are quite simply the same thing. The "vervolguitkering" only applies to the "WGA" and not to the "IVA" .

IVA (Full Invalidity Benefit Regulations or 'WIA-vervolgsuitkering')


Explanation:
When you check the link, it's probably the IVA that is the secondary WIA benefit. But I'd use the Dutch term too. If you're not sure, you can always call the UWV.

The second link talks about a WAO continuation, but the WAO is the old law that was replaced by the WIA, so it's a bit strange that this site presents them both.

Also see https://www.zorgverzekering.org/eng/general-information/soci... which explains the difference between WAO and WIA.

disagree  Kitty Brussaard: Sorry Erik, maar dit klopt gewoon niet. Zie mijn verwijzing. Wat betreft 'WAO-uitkering' en 'WAO-vervolguitkering', die bestaan ook nog, maar dan alleen voor 'oude' gevallen. Zie bijv. https://tinyurl.com/y8tjul6u.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks Kitty. Yes, I had found the following in JurLex: "WGA-vervolguitkering = follow-up benefit under the Return to Work (Partially Disabled Persons) Regulations, WGA follow-up benefit" … but was a bit confused by the difference between "WIA" and "WGA", since my text said "WIA-vervolguitkering", rather than "WGA-vervolguitkering".

Reference: WIA = WGA or IVA; WGA = LGU >> LAU or VVU

Reference information:
WIA is de uitkering die u krijgt als u door ziekte niet of minder kunt werken. WIA staat voor: Wet werk en inkomen naar arbeidsvermogen.

De WIA bestaat uit 2 soorten uitkering, namelijk de WGA-uitkering en de IVA-uitkering.

WGA staat voor: Werkhervatting Gedeeltelijk Arbeidsgeschikten. U krijgt mogelijk WGA als u 2 jaar of langer ziek bent en (in de toekomst) kunt werken.

IVA staat voor: Inkomensvoorziening Volledig Arbeidsongeschikten. U krijgt mogelijk IVA als u niet of nauwelijks kunt werken en er een kleine kans is dat u herstelt.

U vraagt de WIA-uitkering aan als u bijna 2 jaar (104 weken) ziek bent, en u daardoor 65% of minder kunt verdienen van uw oude loon. Bij de WIA geldt dat u zoveel werkt als u kunt.
https://www.uwv.nl/particulieren/ziek/ziek-wia-uitkering/bij...

WGA staat voor Werkhervatting Gedeeltelijk Arbeidsgeschikten. U krijgt een WGA-uitkering in de volgende situaties:

U kunt ondanks uw ziekte wel werken, maar hierdoor 65% of minder van uw oude loon verdienen.
Of u kunt door uw ziekte helemaal niet werken, maar dit is waarschijnlijk tijdelijk.

De WGA-uitkering vult voor een deel het inkomensverlies aan dat u heeft door uw ziekte of aandoening. Zo bent u bij ziekte verzekerd van een inkomen.

Er zijn 3 verschillende WGA-uitkeringen.
(...)
Meestal ontvangt u eerst een loongerelateerde uitkering. Daarna volgt óf een loonaanvullingsuitkering óf een vervolguitkering.
(...)
U krijgt een vervolguitkering als het volgende voor u geldt:

U kunt door ziekte 20 tot 65% van uw oude loon verdienen;
En u verdient minder dan de helft van wat u kunt verdienen;
En u komt niet (meer) in aanmerking voor de loongerelateerde uitkering.
https://www.uwv.nl/particulieren/ziek/ziek-wia-uitkering/beo...

Over mijn WGA-uitkering (WIA)
U krijgt een WGA-uitkering, omdat u nog gedeeltelijk kunt werken.

Welke WGA-uitkering krijg ik?

Meestal ontvangt u eerst een loongerelateerde uitkering (LGU). Daarna krijgt u de loonaanvullinguitkering (LAU) óf de vervolguitkering (VVU).
