Division 2 Adjustment of amountsF1

The amounts of unit costs set out for types of operation 1-3 and 5 will be adjusted yearly in line with the Dutch consumer price index (CPI): https://www.cbs.nl/nl-nl/conversie/uitgelicht/de-consumentenprijsindex. Index figures can be found on CBS Statline.

The first indexation for types of operations 1-3 will be calculated in 2017, for types of operation 5 in 2020. The baseline year for the amounts of unit costs set out in this annex is 2015. (CPI 2015 = 100).

Every year (N), as from 2017, the amounts will be indexed by applying the CPI of the year N-1 with the year 2015 as baseline. The following formula will be used for calculating the amounts of unit costs to be applied in a given year:

Unit cost amounts in year N = Unit cost amounts included in this annex * CPI in year N-1 (with baseline 2015 = 100)/100

The amounts of unit costs set out for types of operation unit cost 4 will be adjusted when the rules and regulations about job coaching change according to the Dutch law. The set percentage of 60 % which forms the basisin the calculation of the hourly amount, to take into account that the assigned number of hours are not always used, will be recalculated every two 2 years in the same way the present calculations have been made with baseline year 2018. If the average differs more than 2 percent of the total number of hours the new percentage will be applied as the new average.
