Netherlands: drawing up a collective bargaining agreement on hybrid work

Already being well ahead of the pack as regards teleworking, the country is working on a policy that it wants to roll out and make lasting once the crisis is over. A new collective bargaining agreement setting out the legal aspects of a hybrid model (on-site and remote working on the basis of equivalent working hours) has been referred for negotiation to the professional bodies. It is set to govern departmental organisation and financial compensation.
