Contracted Policy (Beleidsovereenkomst) In The Welfare Perspective: A Case Study On Constitutional Court Decision

This study aims to analyze contracted policies from a welfare perspective, focusing on a case study of additional income provisions for outsourced workers at the Constitutional Court before and after the enactment of Constitutional Court Decision No. 27/PUU-IX/2011. The research adopts a normative-empirical legal approach, combining doctrinal analysis of applicable regulations with an empirical examination of the policy's impact in practice. The findings indicate that the contracted policy on additional income for outsourced workers has positively impacted their legal protection and welfare. Before the Constitutional Court’s decision, outsourced workers faced legal uncertainty regarding their rights, particularly concerning income and labor protection. With the implementation of this policy, improvements were observed in legal certainty, recognition of outsourced workers’ rights, and their economic well-being. Furthermore, this policy has contributed to fostering a fairer and more harmonious working relationship between outsourced workers and the institution employing them.
