Fixed-Term Contracts

 Fixed-term contracts are permitted in the Netherlands, but cannot be renewed more than three times and cannot exceed three years cumulatively. If a Worker has been engaged on a fixed-term contract for six months or more, they are entitled to one month's advance notice before the end of the fixed term as to whether the contract will be renewed as well as the conditions upon which the contract may renewed. If such notice is not provided, the Worker is owed an additional month's salary.
