Do I get extra pay for working on holidays?

Published: January 15, 2025Updated: April 8, 2025

Yes, for working on holidays you receive a bonus of 100% on top of your normal hourly rate, unless stated otherwise in your contract. **Example:** - If your normal hourly rate is €12, then on a holiday you earn: - Base: €12 - Holiday bonus: €12 (100% extra) - **Total:** €24 per hour The holiday bonus applies to all hours worked on official Dutch public holidays. On your payslip, this is usually shown as 'Holiday bonus' or similar. Note: Franchise stores may have different rules, and some contracts may specify exceptions.
