The Netherlands Fast Facts
Hiring in the Netherlands
A business-friendly environment with a highly skilled workforce, the Netherlands is a top hiring location for multinational organizations. However, Dutch labor regulations can be complex. Employment relationships in the Netherlands are governed by the Dutch Civil Code, the Working Conditions Act, and various collective labor agreements. These collective labor agreements (known as collectieve arbeidsovereenkomst or CAOs) can be negotiated between unions and individual businesses (company CAOs), or between unions and employer associations that represent multiple employers (sectoral CAOs). Sectoral CAOs may be universally binding for all companies in the sector, which can make employment contracts in the Netherlands particularly complicated.
With Safeguard Global as your partner, you can hire employees in the Netherlands with confidence, knowing that every contract meets legal standards. We also provide guidance on cultural expectations and hiring best practices, while helping you stay current with regulatory changes.
Relying on an employer of record (EOR) in the Netherlands
An employer of record (EOR) provides an easier way for organizations to hire and pay local talent in the Netherlands. Because of its in-country presence, the EOR can employ the workers a company needs and lease them to that company, taking care to comply with Dutch labor laws. As a result, the organization doesn’t have to establish a legal presence or manage compliance in the Netherlands.
The EOR can hire and onboard employees in as little as two weeks and manage ongoing responsibilities such as payroll, benefits, and taxes. A full-service EOR can also manage recruitment. Together, these EOR services significantly reduce the administrative burden for an organization.
