According to FNV chairmain Ton Heerts, the Prime Minister Mark Rutte needs to address the abuse of EU rules on migrant workers during the Dutch presidency of the European Union. In particular Heerts referred to a case in dutch shipbuilding, where Romanian welders worked for below minimum wage.

Workers from an EU country who work in another Member State are subject to contribute to the rules of the country where they work. But there is an exception to the workers by the company from their own country to another EU country are posted.

However, legally this can be exploited and is often accompanied by “rogue practices such as evading the cao,” says the union.

Therefore, Modernising the system should be included in the so-called mobility package that the European Commission will soon roll out. This will help prevent Dutch and Romanian workers' played off against each other '' and can “help repair to damage to taxations and the leak in social security.”

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".
