About the webinar
When an employee in the Netherlands reports sick, a process begins that can last up to 104 weeks. During this period, both the employer and employee have various responsibilities, while other parties such as the occupational health service and UWV also play an important role.
For international employers, understanding this system is not always straightforward. Who is responsible for what? Which steps are mandatory? When is an employee considered recovered? And what happens in specific situations, such as mental health issues or pregnancy-related sickness absence?
In this webinar, we will make the Dutch system easier to understand and provide practical guidance for your organisation.
