Balanced Labour Market Act

QUICK READ

In January 2020 the Balanced Labour Market Act, (Wet Arbeidsmarkt in Balans) came into effect. Joost Kokje authored the article WAB onder de loep na woelig half jaar for the journal HR Rendement. In the article, he goes into detail on the governmental amendments made and the effect of those amendments to the hiring and firing of employees and overall employment-related legal practice.

Since the article has been written, several relevant court rulings were published. These rulings provide insight into the way the courts deal with requests based on the newly implemented dismissal ground (i-ground), which has been discussed in the article as well. Our Employment team is specialised in this specific topic and can be contacted if more information is desired.”
