This is mandatory if the employee needs to be let go without this being him or her fault. Think about a redundancy because of economic reasons.
The transitievergoeding is a fee that helps strenghten the position of your employees on the job market. They can use this to start their own company, follow a specific course or make use of an outplacement service.

Why Job in The Netherlands as your outplacement service:
Insider knowledge from a former recruiter
How many outplacement companies actually work with coaches who hired people themselves? – Not many! I’m sharing how leading companies in The Netherlands hire people. So your employees can benefit! I’ve screened thousands of resumes and made just as much decisions on who gets interviewed and who doesn’t.
Focus on real results
The ongoing support and accountability with a clear goal is how you see the biggest changes in a job search. The biweekly coaching sessions and ongoing Whatsapp support is what keeps your employees engaged, while leaving enough room to implement the new insights into their daily life.
A loving mirror and support
I will guide and support your employees in the process from redundancy to a new job offer. I will help identifying their strenghts and skills and how they can best present their value to employers.
Specialized in international employees
A job search for non-Dutch speakers is different than for Dutch speakers. A person needs to identify companies that hire internationals and maybe offer Visa sponsorship as well. It comes with different challenges. I’m specialized in hiring at international companies, but also in helping people find work at these companies.
Access to the Online Career Accelerator
Your employee will get access to an online academy. The academy is filled with video lessons on how to find a job in The Netherlands.
