ProfCare BV

What ProfCare BV does

ProfCare BV is a Dutch occupational health service provider (arbodienst) headquartered in Heerlen, Limburg, operating since 2005. The firm delivers absence management, reintegration, occupational health, and workplace safety services to Dutch employers, with a primary operational focus on the Parkstad and South Limburg region and a stated national coverage capability. It operates through two linked divisions: ProfCare, which provides casemanagement, company physician services, preventive medical examinations (PAGO/PMO), safety assessments, and early labor-expert intervention; and ProfCare Career, a separately registered entity (KvK 54703344) that delivers reintegration trajectories (Spoor 1 and Spoor 2), UWV-contracted 'Naar werk' and 'Werkfit maken' programs, counseling, and job coaching to employees and job seekers.

The company employs approximately 11 professionals across certified roles including bedrijfsarts, arbeidsdeskundigen, casemanagers, loopbaancoaches, occupational hygienists, and customer contact staff. Andy Kramer is the founder and CEO. ProfCare operates as a relationship-based, dedicated-team-per-client model with fixed contact persons, an approach that embeds the firm in client workflows. The underlying technology stack is not proprietary; service delivery is human-led and grounded in Dutch regulatory frameworks (Wet Verbetering Poortwachter, Ziektewet, WGA). The company holds Arbodienstverlening certification, ISO 27001 information security certification, and Ecabo training certification.

ProfCare generates revenue through three channels: recurring subscription contracts (abonnement) for ongoing absence management and reintegration services, project-based engagements, and one-time services (losse verrichtingen) covering casemanagement, bedrijfsarts consultations, preventive examinations, and safety inspections. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales to Dutch employers, supplemented by a UWV channel partnership for government-funded reintegration cases. No funding rounds, investors, or M&A activity are disclosed; the company is privately held with no parent company.

Core offering

ProfCare BV is a Dutch occupational health service provider (arbodienst) that delivers absence management (verzuimbegeleiding), occupational health and safety services, and reintegration support to Dutch employers and employees. Its two divisions provide casemanagement, company physician consultations, preventive medical examinations (PAGO/PMO), workplace safety assessments, early labor expert intervention, and career reintegration tracks (Spoor 1 and Spoor 2) including UWV-contracted trajectories for sickness benefit and disability recipients.

Product overview

ProfCare BV operates as an occupational health and safety service provider consisting of two distinct sub-brands: ProfCare (verzuimbegeleiding/absence management) and ProfCare Career (reintegration/career services). ProfCare provides absence management including casemanagement, company doctor services, preventive anonymous consultations, regular consultations, PAGO/PMO health examinations, reintegration advice, early labor expert intervention, and safety services. ProfCare Career specializes in reintegration pathways (Spoor 1 and Spoor 2), UWV-contracted trajectories ('Naar werk' and 'Werkfit maken'), counseling, and job coaching. Both divisions operate from the same Heerlen office but serve different market segments—ProfCare focuses on employers needing absence management, while ProfCare Career focuses on employees and job seekers needing career guidance and reintegration support.

Others

• UWV (Uitvoeringsinstituut Werknemersverzekeringen): Dutch Social Security Institute that both regulates and contracts ProfCare Career for "Naar werk" and "Werkfit maken" reintegration trajectories. Functions as a customer, channel, and regulator — any insourcing shift would directly affect ProfCare's reintegration revenue stream.

Broad incumbents

• HumanTotalCare (HumanCapitalCare): Major Dutch occupational health and employer-services group encompassing ArboNed and adjacent HR/benefits capabilities. Comparable to ProfCare on core arbodienst services, with broader portfolio including insurance, vitality, and HR solutions at national scale.
• Zorg van de Zaak: Large Dutch network of occupational health providers offering verzuimbegeleiding, bedrijfsarts, and reintegration services. Operates a federated model of local arbodiensten with national coverage, comparable to ProfCare's core service offering but with substantially broader footprint.

Direct peers

• Stigas: Sector-specific arbodienst for the Dutch agricultural and green sectors, providing verzuimbegeleiding, bedrijfsarts, and occupational safety services. Comparable to ProfCare in arbodienst service model and regulatory positioning, though focused on a defined industry vertical.
• ArboNed: One of the largest Dutch arbodiensten, providing occupational health, verzuimbegeleiding, and bedrijfsarts services to employers nationwide. Directly comparable to ProfCare in service mix (absence management, PAGO/PMO, reintegration advice) but at significantly larger national scale.
• Wellbe: Smaller Dutch arbodienst providing occupational health, verzuimbegeleiding, and employer-focused absence management services. Comparable to ProfCare in core service mix and target customer (Dutch employers), typically operating at a similar regional/small-national scale.
• Volandis: Sector arbodienst for the Dutch construction and infrastructure industry, offering absence management, PAGO/PMO, and reintegration services. Operates the same subscription + project-based arbodienst model as ProfCare, with comparable bedrijfsarts and arbeidsdeskundige delivery.
• Beter (Arbodienst): National Dutch arbodienst offering absence management, occupational health examinations, and reintegration services to employers. Closely comparable to ProfCare in scope and customer base, with similar subscription/managed-service revenue model.
