Wijziging van artikel 18b van de Wet minimumloon en minimumvakantiebijslag in verband met het verduidelijken van het rechtsvermoeden van werkgeverschap
This Dutch bill amends Article 18b of the Minimum Wage and Minimum Holiday Allowance Act (Wet minimumloon en minimumvakantiebijslag). The article sets out a legal presumption of employership, meaning a rule that treats a party as the employer unless shown otherwise. The bill aims to clarify how this presumption applies, which matters for determining who is responsible for paying minimum wage and holiday allowance. Based on the title only, the full text and explanatory notes were not reviewed. The change would mainly affect employers, workers, and businesses that use intermediaries, contractors, or other arrangements where it is unclear who the employer is. Clearer rules could help workers enforce their minimum wage entitlements and give companies more certainty about their obligations.
