From 1 January 2020 employees will have the right to a transition payment from the first day of employment. At this time the right only arises after employment of at least 2 years.

The government envisages with the Balanced Labour Market Act to encourage the entering into of permanent employment contracts. By means of levying a lower unemployment insurance contribution for permanent contracts and a higher unemployment insurance contribution for all other employment contracts, the legislature expects that it will become more attractive for employers to offer permanent contracts.

A new ground for dismissal, called the cumulation ground, is introduced as part of the Balanced Labour Market Act (in Dutch: WAB). If the employment contract is terminated on the basis of the cumulation ground, a higher transition payment might be owed.
