What type of contract do I have for my employed shift?

When working an employed shift, you are employed by Temper as a temporary worker (‘uitzendkracht’ in Dutch). To start you’ll get a so called ‘phase A contract’ with ‘uitzendbeding’ (agency clause).

Phase A with agency clause

For every employed shift you are accepted for, you receive a separate employment agreement. The contract is formally valid for 4 weeks, but due to the agency clause, it ends automatically after each shift. This means you’ll have multiple contracts per year, one for each employed shift. You are only paid for the hours you work; if there’s no work, you are not paid.

Phase B

You can work for a maximum of 52 weeks under Phase A. Each week in which you work one or more employed shifts counts as one week. After that, Temper may offer you a Phase B contract.

Your employment terms follow the collective labour agreement (CAO) for your role and the arrangements set out in the intent agreement you signed when you joined, including minimum wage and other legal requirements.
