About us

JobRoad in a nutshell

JobRoad has been steering people from disadvantaged groups towards suitable employers to obtain the right job since 2016. The highly personal approach breaks through the barriers of language, mobility and competency that hamper easy access to the labour market. An efficient lever to help these people into a job within a year, significantly speeding up their integration process. JobRoad’s major value added? It is a network project in the purest sense, for 4 players. Employers and their partner temporary employment agencies, (supra)local authorities and intermediary organisations combine forces here to achieve the same declared objective: filling vacancies with untapped talent. We use our own JobRoad model, which is adapted to every specific type of target group. Personal support for the candidate in finding an employer is provided in three speedily completed phases. Further integration is encouraged by extra training and by awareness-raising activities in the working environment.

The mission

The mission of the international non-profit organisation JobRoad ivzw is that every vulnerable person in the community has the fundamental right to full participation in society. The reason for the vulnerability makes no difference: origin, due to temporary circumstances or otherwise, sweeping social changes etc.

The vision

JobRoad’s vision is that work is the most important integrator in this. The defined strategy? The road to ultimately achieve participation for everyone who is at a significant distance from the labour market is based on three pillars: activation, training and awareness-raising.

Our SDG's

In its daily operations and future plans, JobRoad permanently focuses on four SDGs. This stands for ‘Sustainable Development Goals,’ established by the United Nations (2015).

SDG8 waardig werk

Decent Work and Economic Growth - SDG8

Work is a very important integrator for JobRoad. Not just any job, but work that garners universal appreciation. Work where the dignity of the individual is not only preserved but also enhanced. Healthy economic growth contributes to further increasing the dignity of work for everyone.

SDG 1 Geen Armoede

Combating Poverty - SDG1

JobRoad aims to guide individuals who have difficulty finding the right path to a dignified job, both to and in the workplace. This broad target audience often faces poverty, and for them, work provides a dignified basic income.

SDG10 Ongelijkheid verminderen

Reducing Inequality - SDG10

By specifically working with and for disadvantaged groups, JobRoad helps to make social, economic, and societal inclusion possible for everyone. Age, gender, race, origin, economic or other status should never be a reason to treat people differently.

SDG4 Kwaliteitsonderwijs

Quality Education - SDG4

JobRoad tailors the job search within each local network to the education that individuals have already received. Broadly considered, not restrictive. Moreover, to increase candidates' job opportunities, JobRoad actively guides them towards additional, personalized training.
