Staffing companies
& and secondment.
Two models, one partner. Flexible temporary staffing for peaks and short-term assignments, permanent secondment for stable staffing whilst retaining the convenience of temporary staffing. We handle contracts, salaries, housing and compliance — you manage the shop floor.
The classic temporary employment arrangement — flexible, quick to scale up or down, with full legal employer responsibilities handled by our NEN 4400-1 certified back-office partner, Werkhelden Backoffice. You decide on the work, we take care of everything else: contract, salary, certificates, housing, transport, sick leave, recertification. No hidden costs, just one all-inclusive rate.
What you get.
- Craftsmen with verified qualifications (VCA, certificates)
- 1–3 suggested profiles per request, not 10
- Placement within 1 week of approval
- A dedicated sector advisor as your single point of contact
- Weekly hours reporting via the portal
- Recertification and language courses at our expense
- Continued pay in the event of illness from day 1
- Indemnification against employer liability — we bear the risk
- NEN 4400-1 certified and g-account — limits your hirer’s liability
- Accurate, timely and complete payment of payroll taxes, contributions and social security contributions
How it works.
You submit an application (form or interview). Within 48 hours, you will receive 1–3 profiles that meet the job requirements, with reasons and points for consideration. Agreed? The craftsman starts within 1 week, with a dedicated contact person on our side.
Hirer's remuneration, no surprises.
The applicable collective agreement requires hirer's remuneration: your temporary worker receives the same pay as a Dutch colleague in the same role. We apply a conversion factor (typically 1.8–2.2 times gross pay, depending on pay scale and risk). No extra fees, no ‘service charges’.
Compliant, with indemnity.
Working via FlexHero limits your hirer’s liability. Contracts and payments are handled by our back-office partner Werkhelden Backoffice — NEN 4400-1 certified and a G-account holder. You pay the portion of the invoice relating to payroll taxes and VAT into the G-account, which serves as full discharge. We ensure the correct, timely and complete declaration and payment of all taxes, contributions and social insurance, maintain accurate time records based on hours actually worked, and stay up to date with the applicable collective agreements and employment law. The data processing agreement (GDPR) is included as standard in the partnership — a separate DPA is not required.

Frequently asked questions.
How many craftsmen do I need to make a request?
From 1. No minimum number or minimum term above 1 working week.
How long does it take for the first profiles to be available?
Usually 48 hours after approval of the request. For highly specialised roles (e.g. ASME IX welders): 5 working days.
What if I’m not satisfied with the craftsman?
First 4 weeks: replacement guaranteed within 1 working week, at no cost. After that, subject to consultation — but in practice this rarely happens because we match candidates carefully in advance.
What about sick leave?
We bear the risk. Sick leave, continued pay, recertification in the event of prolonged absence: all at our expense. You only pay for hours worked.
Can we take the craftsman on permanently later?
Yes, that’s always possible by mutual agreement. If someone is on a payroll basis, we don’t charge a transfer fee. For staffing, a reasonable fee applies in accordance with the Waadi for recruitment and provision of staff; we’ll agree the amount transparently with you in advance.
