Payroll & Company Doctor Integration.
Strict Wage Taxes
The Dutch Belastingdienst enforces heavy penalties for incorrect payroll calculations, missed filings, and improper pension registrations.
Mandatory Arbodienst
Under the Dutch Arbowet, every employer must have a contract with a certified occupational health service. Absence of this results in immediate fines.
2-Year Sick Pay Risk
Employers must pay up to 104 weeks of salary during illness. Failing to follow strict reintegration protocols results in UWV wage sanctions.
Integrated HR Infrastructure
Complete Payroll Administration
Monthly generation of digital payslips, automated calculations of holiday allowances, and seamless filing of wage tax returns (aangifte loonheffingen) with the Dutch Tax Authority.
- SEPA Payment Files
- Annual Statements
Mandatory Arbo Contract

Bridging Admin and Law.
Administrative errors in payroll or neglecting occupational health procedures lead to massive claims from employees or the UWV. Most bookkeepers cannot advise you on employment law.
