BlijWerkt is a Dutch provider of occupational health services that help companies manage employee absenteeism. The firm reduces the costs of absenteeism by increasing the health of client organizations and their employees, as well as managing the process of sick leave and reintegration.

BlijWerkt’s innovative service offering includes an assessment method that supports occupational health physicians in collecting more thorough medical history, elevating the quality of interventions and reintegration plans, and fostering overall employee well-being. The company recognizes that effectively managing absenteeism not only enhances employee integration but also benefits both the employer and the employee.

Since its investment in BlijWerkt, Gilde Healthcare has played an active role in the organic and acquisitive expansion of the company. It supported BlijWerkt with growth capital to complete six add-on acquisitions and broaden its services to provide a full spectrum of occupational healthcare services, for both small and large clients.

In 2020, Gilde sold its stake in BlijWerkt to Mentha Capital who had the ambition to further grow the company.
