Regels over een basisverzekering voor arbeidsongeschikte zelfstandigen (Wet basisverzekering arbeidsongeschiktheid zelfstandigen)

This Dutch bill, submitted to the House of Representatives (Tweede Kamer), sets out rules for a basic disability insurance scheme for self-employed workers (zelfstandigen). The aim is to give self-employed people who become unable to work through illness or injury a basic level of income protection, something employees already receive through the national employee disability system. The bill is a legislative proposal, so its details may change during parliamentary debate. The proposal mainly affects self-employed people in the Netherlands who may fall ill or be injured and lose their ability to earn income. It also affects the public authorities and insurers responsible for administering the scheme, as well as the premiums and eligibility conditions that would apply.
