Advice on employment
terms

What we can do for you

Collective agreement (CLA) applications

What does the CLA currently say and what is possible and permissible within your CLA? Which CLA do you fall under now, and does it still align with your requirements? We can give you good advice on future developments within the CLA and discuss it with you in advance.

Drafting various schemes

We can advise you on various schemes for expenses, travel costs, bonuses, pensions accruals and registering them in your accounting system correctly. What is permitted under employment law, and is this possible and permissible from the point of view of the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration? Or should we reconsider whether the policy is still feasible? Our advisors will be happy to help you with this.

Job evaluations, rewards and salary benchmarks

How can you stand out as an employer? This is an important issue for an employment market that is under pressure. It may be wise to look beyond the salary and add other types of reward. Salary is still very important, of course, and so it is a good idea to regularly test your rewards policy against the market by performing a salary benchmark for positions at different levels. By doing so, you increase the confidence of the management team and employees that the rewards policy within your organisation aligns with the market in the way that you want it to. We can help you with this.

Acquisitions: employment term analysis and harmonising employment terms

If you want to take over a business or you are going to sell your own business, it is a good idea to perform employment term analysis, potentially as part of a due diligence HR investigation. After the merger or amalgamation of companies, you should carefully consider aligning the employment terms. How does this work and how will you structure these discussions and reports? Our HRM advisors can help with this and advise you on the employment terms, potentially in collaboration with our acquisition specialists.

Trends in employment terms

How does your organisation respond to these trends in order to create an attractive, up-to-date package of primary and secondary employment benefits, which you can use to strengthen your staff’s loyalty to your business? By closely following the trends, we can advise you and adapt with you over time, so that you are a leading modern employer when it comes to your employment terms.

Drawing up a cafeteria scheme or individual choice budget

Want to give your employees more say in how you apply the work-related costs scheme? Employees will be able to opt for a reward in kind, a tax-free allowance or a bicycle, for example. In the end, they this means they receive more remuneration for their work.

Of course, you need to make good calculations in advance. We can help you draw up the scheme, perform a legal assessment and establish the scope and the (positive) financial consequences. We can also introduce your staff to this multifaceted scheme by holding information sessions.

Performance and assessment interviews

As an employer, it is important that you keep in touch with your staff. You can use an HR interview cycle for this purpose. Our HRM advisors can conduct and record these interviews for you or supervise you in conducting these interviews.
