The ET scheme allows employees living abroad and temporarily working in the Netherlands to receive a tax-free allowance for extra costs incurred because they are temporarily working outside their country of origin.

The scheme yields different results for each person, and results may vary from week to week.This is due to the fact that the maximum amount of the benefit depends on your wages relative to the legal minimum wage, as well as the number of overtime hours you worked and your country of origin.

If you are unexpectedly going to be late for work, contact your supervisor at the workplace and your coordinator immediately by phone.

Public holidays are generally considered non-working days, and if you would normally work on a public holiday, according to your schedule, you may be entitled to receive payment for that day. The general rule is that a holiday is paid if
a. the temporary worker has worked at least seven times on the specific day over a period of thirteen consecutive weeks immediately prior to the public holiday in question; or
b. the temporary worker has not yet worked for thirteen consecutive weeks and has worked on the day in question in more than half the number of weeks in which work was performed.

If you are in doubt about whether a holiday payment was correctly processed in your case, please send an email to questions@b2works.nl and request an explanation.
