Young people aged between 15 and 27; 2022 Region
Description
This table provides figures for the benefit status of young people aged 15 to 27 on 31 December of the reference year by region. The benefit position of young people is divided into benefits or not. The benefits types of unemployment, incapacity for work and assistance and assistance-related benefits are also included.
The regional classification is based on the municipal classification of 1 January 2022 for all years.
The total number of young people with benefits in this table is lower than in regular StatLine tables on persons benefiting from benefits because young people do not live in the Netherlands or whose place of residence is unknown are not included in this table. The number of young people receiving benefits in this table is also lower than in the labour market situation of young people (15 to 27 years old); 2020 region. This is due in particular to the fact that an exact reference date was chosen in this table (31 December) while in the labour market situation of young people (15 to 27 years of age); the 2020 region looked at whether someone had a benefit somewhere in the month of October. For the above tables see paragraph 3.
A young person can claim multiple benefits. These can be benefits of the same kind, for example two benefits in the context of incapacity for work, or benefits of different types, such as unemployment benefit and assistance.
In the latter case, the young person is included in both types of benefits. In the first case, only once in the case of disability benefits. In the total counts, the person is counted once. As a result, the sum of the categories is not equal to the total number of young people benefiting from benefits.
In order to mitigate the effects of the coronavirus crisis, the Temporary Bridging Scheme (Tozo) was in force since 1 March 2020. The Temporary bridging scheme for self-employed entrepreneurs (Tozo) provides self-employed entrepreneurs with an additional subsistence allowance or a loan for working capital to deal with liquidity problems caused by the coronavirus crisis. Self-employed entrepreneurs can receive an amount from this scheme to supplement their income to the social minimum. The first part of the Tozo expired at the end of May 2020, but the scheme was still in force at the end of 2020. The Tozo is considered an assistance-related benefit, resulting in a sharp increase in the number of persons benefiting from assistance-related benefits in 2020.
To reflect how young people in the Netherlands are doing, more than 70 topics are described in the National Youth Monitor in addition to this topic. The topics are called indicators.
