Absenteeism due to illness
When an employee calls in sick, you as an entrepreneur must be alert and show an active attitude. Does the employee need support? Is it short-term or long-term absenteeism? And how is reintegration handled? Perhaps outside your own company? The employment law specialists at LVH Advocaten will be happy to answer these kinds of questions.
Absenteeism policy
Every entrepreneur strives for sustainable employability of his employees and wants a vital team and low absenteeism, but not every entrepreneur knows how to achieve this optimally. The employment law specialists at LVH Advocaten know that achieving low absenteeism starts with developing and implementing a good absenteeism policy. We are also happy to help you with this.
Reintegration
Is your employee on long-term sick leave? If so, you would do well to take action as soon as possible by starting with reintegration. You can start with this by calling in a company doctor/artists service. Together with the employee and, for example, the company doctor, you can determine what the employee can and cannot do during absenteeism.
Labour conflict and illness
Illness can also be accompanied by an industrial dispute. For example, an employee reports sick because of a conflict situation at work while there is no work disability. Or the employee has become ill as a result of the industrial dispute (burn-out). In these situations it is important that you take timely action. A lawyer can give you good advice on how to manage the case.

Important changes in Dutch employment law in 2020
From the 1st of January 2020 a number of changes in Dutch employment law will come into force. These changes will bring new attractive benefits as well as new risks that need be taken into account by both employers and employees.
Liability for acting on behalf of a private company in formation
Legal acts can already be performed on behalf of a private limited company in incorporation. However, caution is required, because the person who has performed the acts on behalf of the B.V. under formation may be personally called upon to fulfil the obligations entered into.
When can a buyer of a property address the seller for a hidden defect?
When you buy an (old) house, you buy it in the condition it is then in. This means including all visible and invisible defects. If it turns out that there is a defect after the purchase, this is in principle at the buyer's risk. This sounds logical. Nevertheless, there are conceivable situations in which the buyer can hold the seller liable for the costs of repairing the defect. In this article I explain when this can be the case.
