Each employer develops and reviews its policy with respect to sustainable employability together with the employee representatives. The important principle here is the employee's right to opportunities for personal development. In this policy, the employer pays extra attention to the development of and career guidance for older employees.
The CLA parties recognise that it is important that employers maintain attention to the sustainable employability and vitality of their employees and will continue to engage in dialogue on this issue. During the term of the CLA, the WVB, in consultation with the employers, will evaluate the effectiveness of existing facilities with respect to sustainable employability and personal development and identify whether and, if so, what need exists for adapting and/or expanding the CLA in this regard. The WVB will continue to put the subject of vitality on the agenda at member meetings in the coming period and encourage exchanges between employers, also in relation to time and place independent working and a partial return to the office.
