Issues in House of Representatives on sick pay

There are some doubts about the implementation of the continued payment of wages for employees on sick leave in the House of Representatives. Minister Asscher admitted in a parliamentary debate that they are busy with this plan, but now it seems it has not yet been confirmed.

The plan of action states that small business up to ten employees would only need to pay the wages of sick employees for a mandatory two year period. This could now be shortened to one year.

In his statement to the parliament Minister Asscher from Social Affairs showed no mention of the further implementation. According to CDA (Christian Democratic Appeal) representative Pieter Heerma said that he refers only to a variant in its implementation.

Asscher said that the Cabinet has come to the conclusion that the proposal is the best and the only feasible option. He goes with the idea to work out the future of this plan in consultation with employers, whereby he is open to alternatives. Come Spring, there should be a more elaborated version that is ripe

I would recommend Together Abroad to anyone who needs professional help with transitioning to a new career.

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".
