In the Netherlands, an EOR arrangement is generally treated as supplying workers, so providers must be registered as labour suppliers. Under the Wtta, scheduled to take effect in 2027, they will also need formal admission, and hirers can be fined for using non-admitted suppliers.
The other big Dutch issue is sick pay: employers must keep paying at least 70% of salary for up to two years of illness. How a provider prices or passes on that risk can matter more than its monthly fee.
- 1

Sick-pay risk handling
Ask whether the two-year sick-pay obligation is included in the fee, insured, or billed back to you.
- 3
Pension and CAO knowledge
A mandatory sector pension fund or collective agreement can change costs significantly. The provider should check before you hire.
