General assistance; benefits under the WWB, 1998-2012

This table provides insight into the number of benefits under the Work and Assistance Act (WWB). As of 1 January 2004, the WWB replaced the General Assistance Act (Abw). As of 1 January 2012, the Law on Investing in Young People (WIJ) and the Work and Income Artists Act (WWIK) have been repealed. Persons up to 27 years of age and artists may be eligible for a WWB benefit. The data are broken down into the following characteristics: — gender; — age; — region; — living form; — benefit duration. A WWB benefit is intended for households. Although for couples, both partners are entitled to the benefit for equal parts, there is still one benefit. Until January 2005, only the characteristics of the person considered by the municipality as an applicant were taken into account by CBS in the case of (real) couple payments. In the figures from January 2005, when granting benefits to couples, the characteristics of the oldest person of the couple are taken over. Data available from: January 1998 Status of the figures: until December 2012 final. Changes as of 26 April 2013: the figures for 2012 have now been definitively established. When are new figures coming? The table has been discontinued. As of 2013, information on welfare benefits has been split into information on benefits and information on persons with benefits. The emphasis is more on people with benefits. Information on benefits remains available, but is stripped of personal characteristics such as gender and age. The information from this table is divided into two tables: — for information on welfare benefits: table WWB benefits; benefit base, regions — for information on persons with social assistance: table Persons with WWB; personal characteristics.本表格展示了《工作与援助法案（Work and Assistance Act，WWB）》项下的福利申领数量情况。自2004年1月1日起，WWB取代了《通用援助法案（General Assistance Act，Abw）》。 自2012年1月1日起，《青年投资法案（Law on Investing in Young People，WIJ）》与《艺术家工作与收入法案（Work and Income Artists Act，WWIK）》正式废止。年龄不超过27周岁的人群及艺术家可申领WWB福利。 数据按以下维度进行拆解统计： — 性别； — 年龄； — 地区； — 居住形态； — 福利申领时长。 WWB福利以家庭为单位申领。尽管夫妻双方可各享有等额的福利份额，但整体仅计为一笔福利。2005年1月之前，荷兰中央统计局（CBS）在处理真实夫妻联合申领的情况时，仅会将市政当局认定的申请人的特征纳入统计范畴；而2005年1月起的统计数据中，向夫妻发放福利时将采用夫妻双方中年龄较长者的相关特征作为统计依据。 数据可获取的起始时间为1998年1月。 数据截至2012年12月的版本为最终正式版。 2013年4月26日的更新说明：2012年的相关数据现已正式确定。 何时发布新版数据？本表格现已停更。自2013年起，社会福利相关数据被拆分为两类：福利申领数据，以及福利申领者相关数据，统计重心更偏向于福利申领者个体。福利申领相关数据仍可获取，但已剔除性别、年龄等个人特征维度。 本表格的原始信息将拆分为两个新表格： — 社会福利申领数据：《WWB福利；福利基数、地区维度》表格 — 福利申领者相关数据：《WWB申领者；个人特征》表格
