Introduction

Have you received a sanction for refusing reintegration? Then it is essential to object quickly. A timely and correct objection procedure can annul or mitigate the sanction. This article provides a step-by-step guide, with attention to deadlines, required documents and common mistakes.

What is an objection procedure?

An objection procedure is the first step to challenge a decision by the UWV or your employer. You must file an objection within six weeks after the sanction decision. Use the official objection form and substantiate your objection with medical certificates or proof of communication.

Step-by-Step Plan

  1. Check the decision: Read the sanction letter carefully and note the reasoning.
  2. Gather evidence: Collect doctor's statements, emails and reports of conversations.
  3. File objection: Send it by post or digitally to the UWV.
  4. Hearing: Prepare for a meeting with a hearing committee.
  5. Appeal: If rejected, you can go to the cantonal court.

Tips for Success

Be concrete in your objection and demonstrate that you do cooperate where possible. Engage a lawyer for complex cases. Many sanctions are lifted with a good objection. (198 words)
