Less holiday allowance for many workers

This year annual holiday allowance will fall in comparison to the previous years for many employees due to HR and payroll processor ADP own calculations.

This year the phasing out of tax credits which are income dependent will be taken into account, as a result employees will receive less net allowance. As stated in nu.nl, the tax credits will be phased out in stages and by 2024 payment of general tax on the lowest-earning partner will be cancelled.

The decline in holiday allowance particularly affects those with a higher income, for example; two and a half times the average income, will receive 256 euros less holiday pay; one and a half times the average income implies 242 euros less and an average income will receive 59 euros less. However, workers with a minimum wage will not receive less.

Linda is a big mind. She thinks about things that the rest normally overlook. The insight she has about the dutch job market can only be achieved through years of experience and persistence.

Her business savvy is complemented by her mastery of understanding the client's needs and requirements. For my career I could say, she was the “Mary Poppins”, who guided me through thick and thin and helped me to land a career in the Netherlands

If you are going to enlist the services of a "Career Coach" look no further. The only person you want in your corner is Linda van Orsouw. As an expat, you absolutely want to work with a highly skilled and knowledgeable professional who knows their way around the Dutch career/employment/job market. Linda assisted me in writing and positioning my CV, helped me organize and prioritize my list of opportunities, coached me through mock interviews and was there when I got offered a senior position only 2 months later. When asked I will only refer to Linda and "Togetherabroad".
