Why The Umbrella Company

The Dutch economy increasingly needs specific skills. Due to labour shortages and insufficient matching of educational qualifications for various industries, some vacancies cannot be filled by Dutch workers. The Umbrella Company was set up to support Dutch employers in the process of accessing a large pool of employment potential.

Knowledge, experience and specialism

With years of knowledge of the Dutch guidelines and rules on the role of legal employer, remuneration and application of wage tax rebates, such as the 30% scheme, we are the right partner to support the entire process.

We thereby focus on the core activity, our specialism. We also have a wide network of partners for additional services, such as recruitment and relocation services. We are happy to advise you on partners with a strong track record.

Best rates for the employer, optimal calculation for the employee

Our fee structure is based on a streamlined and efficient service provision. Our specialism means we have optimised the contracts for the highly qualified skilled worker. Where figures from experience have given other possibilities for the risk premiums for this target group, we have incorporated this into our wage bill. This translates directly into favourable rates for you.

With working processes that are designed efficiently and optimally and in-depth knowledge of the Dutch payroll system, we guarantee a competitive gross-net calculation for the employee. This means that both you and your employee are best off with us.
