    Should a holiday ever fall on a Friday, we will ensure that the salary payment is brought forward to the previous business day so that you can have your money in a timely manner.

    As a temporary employee, do I get a lower salary than someone directly employed by the company where I work?

    No! As a temporary employee, you are entitled to the same compensation and benefits as a permanent employee employed directly by the company. We apply the principle of hirer compensation and/or collective bargaining agreement, which means that you receive a market-based salary appropriate to your knowledge and skills, comparable to what a permanent employee in a similar position would earn.

    Am I entitled to a pension plan when I work at Connecting People?

    Yes, at Connecting People you are entitled to a pension plan. You start accruing a pension from your first day of employment with us.

    Do I get paid extra for national holidays?

    No, for national holidays such as King's Day and Christmas, you do not get extra pay. These days are already included in your hourly wage as reservations, so if you don't work on such a day, you won't get paid less than normal. It is important to note, however, that you cannot take these days as vacations. If you do work on such a day, you will of course receive your normal wage.

    What are the nationally recognized public holidays?
    -
    New Year's Day
    - Easter Monday
    - Ascension Day
    - Whit Monday
    - King's Day
    - Liberation Day (only in anniversary years, so once every 5 years)
    - Christmas Day
    - Boxing Day

    What kind of contract will I get at Connecting People?

    At Connecting People, you will be given a temporary contract. This means that you can be flexibly employed by various clients and that your contract will continue as long as there is work for you. When your assignment ends, we will see if there is other work available for you. This way you always have a chance for a new assignment.

    What happens if I stop working at Connecting People?

    When you stop working at Connecting People, you will be paid your accrued vacation pay within 6 weeks. So it is important to keep track of how many vacation days you have left, so there are no surprises when you stop working. You cannot take your vacation pay mid-term, but will receive it twice a year in June and December.

    What are the working hours when I work through Connecting people

    Working hours depend on the client you work for. In most cases you work during office hours, but it may happen that you also have to work evenings or weekends or in shifts. This depends on the assignment and will always be discussed with you.

    How many hours per week can I work?

    The number of hours you work per week depends on the client you work for. In most cases, you will work between 32 and 40 hours per week. On our website you will find vacancies that indicate how many hours the position is available for, so you can apply as you wish. It can also happen that you have to work more or less hours. This will always be discussed with you.
