The European Union has approved the work-life balance directive.
The work-life balance directive can be very positive
for people with intellectual disabilities.
It allows their parents and carers to have more time free
so that they can spend together.

Now every country in the European Union
has to apply the work-life balance directive.
The governments are in charge of doing this task.
We ask governments to apply the work-life balance directive
as fast as possible.
We think it’s important that:
- Parents or carers get paid even when they don’t go to work
- Governments collaborate with NGOs
- Governments recognize that there are different kinds of families
