About Us

Building bridges between talent and opportunities

Inclusive Workforce Solutions (IWS) was founded to support newcomers in building a future in the Netherlands — and to help organizations benefit from diverse, motivated talent.

We believe that integration is not just an obligation, but a human process that requires understanding, guidance and cooperation.

Our Mission

Strengthening newcomers in their integration and participation, and supporting organizations in creating inclusive, safe and productive workplaces.

Wie Wij Zijn

IWS was founded by Getenet Tadesse, whose personal journey—from refugee to community leader—forms the foundation of our vision.

After his UNHCR resettlement in the Netherlands, Getenet rebuilt his life through education, work, and years of dedication to newcomers in Friesland. His experience includes:

  • job coaching and workplace guidance

  • support for asylum seekers and status holders

  • volunteering at the Red Cross

  • advisory work for IOM Netherlands

  • leadership within migrant communities

  • HRM studies and experience in the social domain

These experiences made one thing clear: newcomers need culturally sensitive guidance, and organizations need support to work effectively with diverse teams.

IWS was founded to bridge that gap.

What We Do

We supply:

  • labor market integration & job coaching

  • cultural training for employers

  • workplace mediation & confidential counselor

  • recruitment & job matching

  • online training courses

  • case management & PIP support

  • advice for municipalities and social organizations

Our approach is practical, culturally sensitive and focused on sustainable results for both newcomers and organizations.

 

Our Vision

A labor market where talent knows no boundaries — where newcomers thrive, employers strengthen, and communities become more inclusive.
