After brain injury and breast cancer, Evelien applied 200 times in vain: ‘Allow 5-hour working days’

Brain injury at 28 and breast cancer at 30. Evelien Jonkers experienced it and lives with the severe consequences of the radiation she had to undergo. She desperately wants to work, but cannot keep up eight-hour days and is therefore constantly rejected. Now that the new government wants to cut benefits to ‘activate people’, it is taking action. “Allow working days of four, five or six hours, because we really want to.”
