"‘Long Covid' can have severe repercussions on the work and income of sufferers, but some organisations are trying to help. The Netherlands-based C-Support organisation provides support and advice for patients suffering from long Covid; it assists their reintegration into work and helps them to keep their jobs. Meanwhile, the Netherlands Trade Union Confederation (FNV) is advocating the introduction of a financial compensation mechanism to benefit those infected in the course of their work."
