The Future of Pensions Act and the role of the works council
In the Netherlands, we do not have a mandatory pension scheme. However, approximately 65% of employers are required to place their pension with an industry pension fund. This means that the other 35% of employers are free to decide whether they want to offer a pension scheme to their employees.
