Staffing
& secondment.
Two models, one partner. Flexible staffing for peaks and short-term assignments, long-term secondment for stable staffing levels with all the convenience of staffing. We handle the contract, pay, housing and compliance — you direct the work on the shop floor.
The classic staffing relationship — flexible, quick to scale up or down, with full legal employership arranged through our NEN 4400-1 certified back-office partner Werkhelden Backoffice. You decide the work; we take care of everything around it: contract, pay, certificates, housing, transport, sickness absence, recertification. No hidden costs, one all-in rate.
What you get.
- Skilled workers with verified papers (VCA, certificates)
- 1-3 proposed profiles per request, not 10
- Placement within 1 week of approval
- A dedicated sector consultant as your single point of contact
- Weekly hours reporting via the portal
- Recertification and language courses at our expense
- Continued pay during illness from day 1
- Indemnity from employer obligations — we bear the risk
- NEN 4400-1 certified with a G-account — limits your liability as the hiring company
- Correct, timely and complete payment of payroll taxes, premiums and social security contributions
How it works.
You submit a request (form or call). Within 48 hours you receive 1-3 profiles that meet the job requirements, with rationale and points of attention. Approved? The skilled worker starts within 1 week, with a dedicated contact person on our side.
Hirer's remuneration, no surprises.
The applicable CAO requires hirer's remuneration: your temporary worker receives the same pay as a Dutch colleague in the same role. On top of that we charge a multiplier (typically 1,8-2,2 on the gross wage, depending on scale and risk). No extra fees, no 'service charges'.
Compliant, with indemnification.
Working through FlexHero limits your liability as the hiring company. Contracts and payroll run through our back-office partner Werkhelden Backoffice — NEN 4400-1 certified and a G-account holder. You pay the payroll tax and VAT portion of the invoice into the G-account, which discharges you of that liability. We take care of the correct, timely and complete filing and payment of all taxes, premiums and social insurance contributions, keep watertight time records based on hours actually worked, and stay up to date with the applicable CAOs and employment legislation. The data processing agreement (GDPR) is included in the collaboration as standard — no separate DPA is needed.
When it does and doesn't fit.
| Good fit | Not a fit (choose another model) |

Frequently asked questions.
From how many skilled workers can I submit a request?
From 1. No minimum number or minimum term above 1 working week.
How long does it take before the first profiles arrive?
As standard, 48 hours after your request is approved. For highly specialised roles (e.g. ASME IX welders): 5 working days.
What if the skilled worker isn't a good fit?
First 4 weeks: replacement guaranteed within 1 working week, at no cost. After that, by arrangement — but in practice it rarely happens because we match carefully up front.
What about illness?
We bear the risk. Sick leave, continued pay, recertification after longer absence: all at our expense. You only pay for hours worked.
Can we take on the skilled worker later?
Yes, that is always possible by mutual agreement. If someone works on a payroll basis, we charge no transfer fee. For staffing, a reasonable fee applies under the Waadi (the Dutch Placement of Personnel by Intermediaries Act) for recruitment and placement; we agree the amount with you transparently in advance.
