Doorzaam partnerships and signals
Strategic signalPartnerships
Six partnerships are on record, tiered minor and core.
- OOM, A+O MetalektrominorDoorzaam, OOM, and A+O Metalektro continued their collaboration under a new ESF+ subsidy to jointly guide approximately 200 people toward sustainable employment in the metal and electro sector through January 2028.
- Stichting Fonds Uitzendbranche (SFU)coreSFU is the foundational Stichting (foundation) for the Dutch temporary employment industry. Doorzaam operates as the fund's operational arm. Temporary employment agencies that contribute to SFU (per the SFU-CAO) gain access to Doorzaam's schemes and services. SFU also verifies that organizations have paid their SFU contributions before they can use Doorzaam services.
- UitzendexpeditieminorUitzendexpeditie and Doorzaam collaborated to launch a toolkit for conducting 'het goede gesprek' (the good conversation) with temporary workers. The toolkit supports agencies in starting productive conversations about the needs and possibilities of their temporary workers.
- Geldfit.nlminorDoorzaam partners with Geldfit.nl to offer a dedicated landing page where temporary workers can take a financial health test, find information about money matters, and learn about Doorzaam's financial support services. This is a co-branded referral pathway for agencies to direct workers to free financial guidance.
- NibudminorDoorzaam references Nibud's tools (budget planners, Geldplannen, email coaching) extensively in its financial wellness content and recommends Nibud resources to agencies and temporary workers for budget planning and financial health.
- KBA NijmegenminorKBA Nijmegen conducted research under 1,200 temporary workers in 2020 on behalf of Doorzaam to measure the impact of the Ontwikkelbudget on sustainable employability. The study found that 58% of participants gained more self-confidence, 82% felt motivated to keep learning, and 44% improved in their current work.

Doorzaam competitors and assessment
Company assessmentRegional players
- Uitzendexpeditie: Dutch industry initiative focused on professionalizing the temporary employment sector; co-developed the 'goede gesprek' toolkit with Doorzaam. Targets the same uitzendbureau audience with adjacent employer-support tools.
Direct peers
- Stichting Werken aan Perspectief / Sectorale O&O fondsen (collective O&O funds): Umbrella for various Dutch sectoral Opleidings- en Ontwikkelingsfondsen; same CAO-funded foundation structure as Doorzaam, delivering training vouchers, employability programs, and welfare support for industry-specific workforces. Closely comparable governance and revenue model.
- Schoonmaak Opleidingsfonds (SOF) / RAS: Sectoral training fund for the Dutch cleaning industry; operates under the same CAO-funded foundation model as Doorzaam and provides training budgets, safety materials, and employability support for cleaning personnel — directly comparable to Doorzaam's role for uitzendkrachten. Doorzaam even references cleaning-sector Arbochecklists as a use case.
- OOM (Opleidings- en Ontwikkelingsfonds voor de Metaalbewerking): Dutch sectoral training and development fund for the metalworking industry, structurally analogous to Doorzaam: also a CAO-funded stichting providing training budgets, employability support, and welfare programs for a defined workforce. Doorzaam and OOM already co-deliver an ESF+ project for the metaal/electro sector, making OOM the closest operational peer.
- A+O Metalektro: Arbeidsmarkt en Opleidingsfonds for the metal and electro sector in the Netherlands; like Doorzaam, it is a social-partner foundation that funds training, sustainable employability, and welfare programs via mandatory sectoral contributions. Joint ESF+ collaboration with Doorzaam underscores the parallel fund-architecture model.
- FCB (Fonds Collectieve Belangen): Dutch sectoral foundation administering CAO-collected contributions across multiple industries to fund collective labor-market and welfare projects. Closely mirrors Doorzaam's SFU funding mechanism and program delivery model for affiliated sectors.
Emerging players
- OpenUp: European mental-wellness platform that sells B2B access to psychologists and self-guided tools to employers; competes in the same mental-fitness category as Doorzaam's Mentaal fit program. Different funding model (B2B SaaS) but directly substitutable for agencies seeking modern alternatives.
- Nibud (Nationaal Instituut voor Budgetvoorlichting): National Dutch institute for budgeting and financial education; explicitly referenced by Doorzaam as a content and tool partner (budget planners, Geldplannen, email coaching) for Budgetinzicht and Budgetcoaching. Comparable mission (financial resilience for vulnerable households) and partially overlapping service surface.
- Geldfit.nl: Dutch financial health platform that provides money-stress tests and referral pathways to debt counseling; co-branded landing page integrated with Doorzaam for temporary workers. Comparable in offering a digital financial-wellness entry point to the same target population.
Broad incumbents
- UWV (Uitvoeringsinstituut Werknemersverzekeringen): Dutch national agency administering employee insurance, benefits, and workforce reintegration services; broader in scope but addresses overlapping needs (sickness, income support, return-to-work) for many of the same vulnerable workers Doorzaam serves. Often the upstream referrer into Doorzaam's programs.
