The Sigedis Career Database

A complete overview of your career

The Sigedis career database consolidates all relevant data from citizens' socio-professional history into a central database. It collects information from authentic sources within organisations such as the NSSO (the National Social Security Office), the National Employment Office, and INAMI/RIZIV (the National Institute for Health and Disability Insurance) and adds other data to provide effective and reliable support to social security institutions and citizens.

What does the career database contain?

• Employment status: employment, unemployment, disability, etc.
• Supporting information: qualifications, periods of cover abroad, flexi-work.
• Personal input: citizens can add missing data themselves, for example work experience abroad.

Why a central career database?

The database has obvious advantages:

• Efficiency: there is no need to request career data from different institutions each time.
• Detection of anomalies: inconsistencies between sources are identified more quickly.
• Flexibility and durability: can be used for a variety of purposes, from pension calculation to career advice.
• Confidentiality and regulatory protection: access is strictly regulated and protected by law.

Relationship with authentic sources

Rather than replacing the public institutions’ authentic sources, the career database strengthens their role. It centralises and structures data, giving citizens and institutions a more rapid overview of careers while keeping sources up to date and reliable.
