Staff leasing and flexwork

Staff leasing offers flexible working within a framework governed by law and social partnerships. Temporary workers enjoy stronger protections than the self-employed, since as employees they are subject to labor and social security law and have access to innovative, tailor-made solutions as regards social security and further training. Compared to a traditional employment relationship, temporary work offers greater flexibility to both employers and employees.

Temporary work therefore meets the needs of many flexworkers. Together, the three working formats of self-employment, employment relationships and staff leasing relationships are enough to keep pace with changes in society and the economy. If there is a need for adjustment in the gray area between employment and self-employment, new nuances must also ensure the right balance between flexibility on the one hand and social security on the other.

Staff leasing is the ideal solution for flexwork and should be put to increasing use, rather than the current employment relationships that fall in the gray area between employment and self-employment.
