In the case of an on-call contract for an indefinite period (on-call agreement), you generally need to apply for a dismissal permit through the UWV if you initiate the termination of employment due to the closure of the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since it is an indefinite contract, it is legally considered a regular (permanent) employment relationship \u2013 even if it is an on-call contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When is a UWV procedure mandatory?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You must apply for a dismissal permit from the following authority:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7 UWV<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7 You want to terminate the employment relationship
\u00b7 The reason for termination is economic in nature (for example, closing the business)
\u00b7 There is no mutual agreement<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Closing a business is considered an economic reason \u2192 therefore a UWV procedure is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the UWV procedure?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A UWV dismissal permit is the official authorization an employer needs to dismiss an employee for economic reasons (for example restructuring) or long-term illness (after 2 years). It is a written procedure in which the UWV checks whether the dismissal is justified and whether all conditions have been met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exception: mutual agreement (a faster solution)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A UWV procedure is not required if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7 The employment relationship is terminated by mutual agreement (settlement agreement \u2013 VSO).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the case of closing a business, this is often a more practical solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Important:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7 The transition payment (severance payment) usually has to be paid
\u00b7 The end date must be determined correctly in relation to unemployment benefits (WW)
\u00b7 The employee has a 14-day withdrawal period<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In practice, many small business owners choose mutual agreement because it is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7 faster
\u00b7 involves less administration
\u00b7 provides more control over the end date<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transition payment in the case of an on-call contract<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Yes, a transition payment must also be paid for an on-call employee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The calculation is based on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7 The average gross salary of the last 12 months
\u00b7 Including holiday allowance
\u00b7 Including fixed allowances<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What should you pay special attention to with an on-call employee?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Has the employee received a mandatory offer for fixed working hours after 12 months?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. How many hours does the employee work on average?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Does the contract contain a notice period?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    These factors influence the calculation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
