With the lifting of the enforcement moratorium on the DBA Act as of January 1, 2025, clients have become a lot more cautious about hiring self-employed workers. After all, if false self-employment is established, the Tax Office can impose additional taxes and correction obligations. But what if not the Tax Office, but the self-employed worker himself goes to court and questions the employment relationship? According to NRC, in half of the cases the self-employed person is vindicated, with far-reaching consequences for the client in question.
Sem Overduin and Oifik Youssefi of the public affairs team discuss further in this episode:
