After signing and completing your contract, you will receive login details for the EURflex Konnekt hours portal. EURflex Konnekt is the web application where you create your timesheets. If your contract is extended, your existing login details will remain unchanged. If you no longer have your login details or if they no longer work, please contact us at 010-4082533 or eurflex@eur.nl.
You can also view your payslips and annual income statements via EURflex Konnekt. You register your hours worked in EURflex Konnekt yourself. Click here to read how it works. You can save a timesheet to make changes to it later or send it to your supervisor for approval. Once a timesheet has been sent, it will no longer be possible to make any changes to it.
When registering your hours worked, make sure you enter just one timesheet per week and per budget number!
Once you have created and sent a timesheet in EURflex Konnekt, your supervisor will either approve or reject the number of hours you have registered. EURflex will pay your salary based on the timesheets approved by your supervisor.
If you have been on business trips (business travel) for EUR, you can claim the expenses incurred using the ‘business travel expense’ form. After the client has signed this form, you can submit it to EURflex along with the original receipt (or an expense report about the personalised public transport chip card, or a bank statement if you used a smartphone) or invoice.
When you register with EURflex, you are given the option to choose whether you want to be paid ‘weekly’ or ‘4-weekly’. If your timesheet is approved before 4 p.m. on a Monday, your salary will be transferred to your bank account the next day (or once every 4 weeks on Tuesday). Depending on your bank, it may take a few days for your salary to appear in your bank account. See the processing and payment dates.
If you have worked but have not been paid yet, use the following step-by-step plan to find out why:
Holiday pay
You accrue provisions for holiday pay for every hour worked. Your holiday pay will be equal to 8% of your gross annual salary and be paid to you at the end of May each year. If your employment contract ends before the end of May in a particular year, your holiday pay will be paid to you about six weeks after the date on which your contract ends.
Year-end bonus
Flexiworkers who work for EUR, iMTA or IHS accrue a provision for the year-end bonus based on each hour worked. This bonus will be equal to 8.3% of your gross annual salary.
Flexiworkers who work for EUR Holding (excluding iMTA and IHS) and EE Holding are not eligible for the year-end bonus.
The year-end bonus is always paid in November of each year. If your employment contract ends earlier, the year-end bonus will be paid to you about six weeks after the date on which your contract ends,
together with the provisions for holiday hours, holiday pay. If applicable your transition fee will be paid the week after.
Leave entitlements are accrued per hour worked. The accrual is shown in monetary terms on the payslip. In EURflex Konnekt, the accrual is shown in the Reservations under Finance. You can take (be paid) leave in a timesheet. You will then see the leave balance in hours under Reservations and can indicate in the appropriate box which part you want to have paid.
If a public holiday coincides with your scheduled working day and the university is closed, you will still be paid. The number of hours for which you get paid is calculated based on the average number of hours you worked on the day in question for the last 13 weeks.
If you feel like you are eligible for payment on this holiday, please inform EURflex of this by sending an e-mail.
You can access your weekly payslip and annual income statements digitally via EURflex Konnekt. See EURflex Konnekt for more information.
Pension
You accrue pension with a.s.r.. For a brief overview of the pension scheme, see the brochure. It sets out what you will and will not get from EURflex B.V..
Transistion fee
The Balanced Labour Market Act (Wet Arbeidsmarkt in Balans, or WAB) came into effect on 1 January 2020. Its implementation means that you will be entitled to a transition fee if your employment is ended by the employer from 1 January 2020 onwards.
If you reach state pension age or your employment contract is terminated at your request, as a flexiworker, your right to the transition fee will lapse. The same applies to flexiworkers who are under the age of 18 at the time of dismissal; they will not be entitled to the allowance.
Statutory payroll tax and social security contributions
Although everyone has to pay taxes, you will be entitled to a discount on the tax you pay if you work. You can apply for this discount (income tax and social insurance contributions credit/loonheffingskorting) via your employer when you sign your employment contract. Your employer will pay less tax and your net income will increase as a result.
Do you have more than one employer?
Are you working for more than one employer? Or are you receiving benefits and working at the same time? Then apply for the payroll tax credit from the employer that pays you the highest gross salary. If you claim the payroll tax credit from each of your employers, your tax discount will be too high and you will probably have to pay back some of it to the tax authorities (Belastingdienst) at a later date.
If you will be working for a number of employers one after another in a particular year, you can apply for the payroll tax credit with each employer.
