The employer can only refute a claim if he can demonstrate that the extra work is only temporary (for example due to a specific project or seasonal pressure).\n\n Please note: Other agreements may apply regarding additional work, as laid down in, for example, a collective labour agreement or employment contract or company regulations.\n \nThis concerns Article 7:610b of the Dutch Civil Code: If an employment contract has lasted at least three months, the agreed work in any month is presumed to have a scope equal to the average scope of the work per month in the three preceding months.\n\n Labor law is my specialty and I am happy to help you with this. Please feel free to contact me without obligation.\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Questioner\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n I'm not afraid that my contract won't be extended.\n\n All flex workers will be fired as of December 31, 2014 due to budget cuts.\n\n After that, at 46 years old, I will have no chance on the labor market and I will lose everything anyway, so a month earlier or later will no longer make any difference.\n\n I would like to get rid of it as soon as possible, sell my house and start organizing my life differently. As soon as possible, peace in my life again. I can't keep up this frustration much longer.\n\n There is a surplus of staff with permanent contracts and daytime activities are shrinking, so they will probably be deployed as flex workers.\n \nYou won't get any real answers.\n\n This year, new flex workers have been hired, but they were given fixed hours in their contracts, so they now have priority over work and I suddenly have little work, so I am on the edge of applying for additional benefits.\n\n From January 2013 we were also written to that we were excluded from applying for vacancies that were there. We flex workers were angry about this but I was able to get over it because I also found working at different locations a challenge and you don't get bored too quickly at work.\n\n Is there anything I can do against my employer who provides disability care?\n\n","brand":"Rechtswinkel.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55015103922525,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rechtswinkel.nl\/en\/products\/vragen-25924-mijn-o-uren-flex-contract-gehandicaptenzorg-wordt-per-1-augustus-2014-voor-de-3e-x-verlengt-tot-3","provider":"Rechtswinkel.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
