Directorate-General for Benefits
The Directorate-General for Benefits makes payments that ensure that everyone has access to essential services. The benefits it provides enable people to pay their monthly bills for rent, health insurance and childcare, as well as other living expenses related to children.
The Directorate-General for Benefits wants to perform its statutory tasks as effectively as possible, since it is fully aware that many people and households rely on it to make ends meet.
It aims to ensure that all members of society can afford basic necessities like housing, medical care and childcare. It therefore recognises the need to perform its work with utmost care: it must help people gain quick and easy access to all the benefits to which they are entitled. Life for many people is complicated enough already. That’s why the Directorate-General for Benefits works hard to make things as easy as possible for claimants.
