Social,Family & Children

The train crash of February 15th at Buizingen and the difficulty that ensued to identify certain victims, serves as a reminder that we must regularly update the contact details of our next of kin in Sysper 2 (Sysper 2 -- Jobholder management -- Contact person). It is important that those close to you do not find themselves in the situation whereby they would be without any news as to your whereabouts simply because you neglected to update this information, therefore, please check that your contact details are up to date.

The parents of children who are confronted with specific difficulties at school which no longer allow them to pursue their studies in the European schools or those parents who, due to their place of employment are not in a position to send their children to a European school can receive, subject to certain conditions, a financial assistance towards covering such exceptional schooling costs. This scheme is managed by the Social Service upon the examination of a specific request introduced together with the relevant supporting documents. The relevant Regulation and the forms to be filled in are available on "MyIntracomm" under the heading "My IntraComm > RH and Administration > personal Family and business > psychological and social Aid > financial Aid"

The files introduced are being examined once a year by an Advisory Joint Committee. The exact deadline for introducing the files relating to the past school year will be published in the course of the month of April on "MyIntracomm".
