O le sala tupe fa'apulega i Netherlands

E mafai e se pulega Holani ona fa'asalaina lau kamupani e aunoa ma le alu i le fa'amasinoga. E su'esu'e, faia se fa'ai'uga, ma lafo atu se pili. O le fa'asalaga o se fa'asalaga, o lea e fa'aoga ai puipuiga fa'amasino tonu mai le fesili muamua a le tagata siaki - ae na'o se kamupani e iloa o lo'o ia te ia. O lenei tusiga e aofia ai po'o ai e fa'asalaina ai ma mo le a, fa'apefea ona fa'atino le faiga, fa'apefea ona fa'atulaga ma fa'aitiitia le aofa'i, ma mea e fai i le aso.

O le ā le sala tupe fa'apulega

O se sala tupe fa'apulega o se tiute e le fa'atuaoia e totogi ai tupe, e fa'atulaga e se pulega fa'apulega e fai ma fa'asalaga mo le solia o se tulafono fa'atulafonoina (mataupu 5:40 Awb). O le fa'avae o lo'o i totonu o le Ulutala 5.4 o le Algemene wet bestuursrecht (“Awb”); ona ta'u mai lea e tulafono ta'itasi a vaega po'o fea soliga e mafai ona fa'asalaina ma le maualuga e o'o atu i ai.

E lua mea e ofo ai kamupani faavaomalo. E leai se loia ma se faamasino e aofia ai: o le pulega e siakiina oe e filifili foi ua e solia le tulafono ma faatulaga le aofaiga. Ma e mulimuli ane ona faia lea o le pulega a le faamasinoga, pe afai e te talosaga atu, i totonu o taimi atofaina pupuu - o le misia o le tasi ma o le a tumau pea le sala tupe e le tusa ai ma le tulafono.

Fa'asalaga e fa'atusatusa i le taui: o le eseesega e pulea ai mea uma

O le tulafono fa'apulega a Holani e vaevaeina ai fa'asalaga i ni vaega se lua (mataupu 5:2 Awb). O se fa'asalaga toe fa'aleleia (herstelsanctie) e fa'amutaina ai le soliga, taofia ai le toe faia pe ave'esea ona taunuuga - e masani lava o se poloaiga e totogi ai se sala tupe ( last onder dwangsom , mataupu 5:31d Awb). O se fa'asalaga fa'asalaga (bestraffende sanctie) e fa'aleagaina ai le tagata solitulafono. O le sala tupe fa'apulega o le fa'asalaga fa'asalaga masani lea, ma o lea la o se "molia fa'asolitulafono" i totonu o le uiga o le mataupu 6 ECHR. O puipuiga e fa'apipi'i e le fa'apipi'i i se poloaiga toe fa'aleleia.

E masani ona tuufaatasia e le au faatonutonu tulafono ia mea e lua — o se sala tupe mo le mea na tupu, o se poloaiga mo le mea e tatau ona suia — o ni faaiuga eseese faatasi ai ma aso faatulagaina eseese.

O fea fa'atonu e fa'amalosia, ma o a mea e fa'atatau i ai

gāluega

• Arbeid vreemdelingen susu (Wav) — employing a foreign national without the required permit. “Employer” is deliberately wide: anyone who has work performed for them in the course of a profession or business qualifies, so a client, a hirer of agency staff or a main contractor can be fined for someone else’s worker. The amounts are fixed in the Beleidsregel boeteoplegging Wav, which sets a norm amount per illegally employed worker, lower for a natural person than for a legal person or undertaking, with increases of 50, 100 or 200 per cent for repetition within five years. That policy rule is published in the Staatscourant and revised periodically, so check the version in force on the date of the breach.
• Waadi — both supplier and hirer can be fined where the supplier is not correctly registered in the Commercial Register as a lender of labour. The fine runs in graduated bands by the number of workers involved, set in the applicable fining policy.
• Arbowet — health and safety (art. 34 Arbowet), with categories running from a few hundred euros to several thousand, and a far larger amount for failing to report a serious accident immediately. Multipliers apply where an accident caused death or hospitalisation; reductions apply for smaller employers.
• Arbeidstijdenwet ma tulafono o totogi maualalo.

Lagolagoina o femalagaaiga

The IND fines recognised sponsors (erkend referenten) under art. 55a Vw 2000 for breach of the duties to inform, to keep records and of care — for example failing to report within four weeks that a sponsored employee has left or that salary has fallen below the threshold. The IND publishes the duties rather than the sums; the norm amounts are fixed in the implementing rules under the Vreemdelingenwet 2000, not in the Wav fining policy. The greater exposure is usually not the fine but suspension or withdrawal of recognised-sponsor status, which stops your hiring pipeline.

Tauvaga, vaavaaiga tau tupe, puipuiga o faamatalaga ma le siosiomaga

• ACM — competition and consumer law. The statutory maximum is a fixed amount per breach or, if higher, 1 per cent of annual turnover, rising to 10 per cent for cartels and abuse of dominance — reaching 40 per cent for multi-year infringements, doubled for repeat offenders. The central power to fine sits in art. 12m Instellingswet ACM, which covers both substantive competition infringements and failure to comply with a commitment decision declared binding under art. 12h Instellingswet ACM, as well as breach of the duty to cooperate with an investigation under art. 5:20 Awb.
• AFM ma le DNB — art. 1:80 Wft, with base amounts and maxima fixed by category under art. 1:81 Wft in the implementing decree for the financial sector, which is adjusted periodically. Comparable powers exist under the Wwft, the Wtt 2018 and the Pensioenwet.
• Autoriteit Personsgegevens — mataupu 83 GDPR: €10 miliona po'o le 2 pasene o tupe maua i le lalolagi atoa, ma le €20 miliona po'o le 4 pasene, e tusa ai ma le aiaiga ua solia.
• siosiomaga — o loʻo pulea pea e poloaiga mo le toe faaleleia, ae o loʻo iai le pule e faʻasalaina ai fale tetele (Seveso) (mataupu 18.11 Omgevingswet) ma tulafono o fale ma tausiga (mataupu 18.12 Omgevingswet).

O puipuiga, auā o se sala tupe o se moliaga faasolitulafono

• O le aia tatau e fa'alologo ai, ma le fa'aeteete. E leai se tasi e noatia e tali fesili ma le fa'amoemoe e maua ai se fa'asalaga fa'asalaina, ma e tatau ona ta'uina muamua i ai (mataupu 5:10a Awb). Na faia e le Vaega o Pulega Fa'amasino i le aso 27 o Iuni 2018 (ECLI:NL:RVS:2018:2115) e tatau ona faia le lapata'iga i le taimi lava e tasi, ma fa'amasinoina ma le tonu e se tagata matau talafeagai, o le fesili e fa'atatau i le fa'asalaina o lena tagata - ae le o le fa'ai'uga fa'apitoa a le tagata su'esu'e. O fa'amatalaga e faia e aunoa ma lea mea e masani lava e le mafai ona fa'aaogaina o ni fa'amaoniga.
• O le manatu o le lē sala. E tatau i le pulega ona faʻamaonia le soliga, ma e le mafai ona faʻasalaina se sala tupe pe afai e le mafai ona faʻatatauina oe (mataupu 5:41 Awb).
• O le aia tatau e fa'alogoina ai a’o le’i faia le fa’ai’uga (mataupu 5:53 Awb) ma toe fai fo’i i le tulaga o le tete’e (mataupu 7:2 Awb).
• O le aia tatau e siaki ai le faila — o faʻamaumauga e faalagolago i ai le sala tupe, ma kopi (mataupu 5:49 Awb). Fesili tusitusia, i se taimi vave.
• Sui faaletulafono i feutagaiga uma ma le pulega (mataupu 2:1 Awb), e aofia ai ma le taimi o se asiasiga.
• Fa'aliliuga ma le fa'aliliuga pe a talafeagai mo le puipuiga (mataupu 5:49 Awb ma le mataupu 5:50 Awb) — e le o fa'aaogaina lelei e kamupani e pulea e tagata mai fafo.

O le faiga, la'asaga i lea la'asaga

Afai e mafai ona sili atu le sala tupe i le €340, e fa'aoga loa le faiga e sili atu ona mamafa (mataupu 5:53 Awb): e tatau ona tusia se lipoti ma e tatau ona tu'uina atu ia te oe le avanoa e tali atu ai. I lalo ifo, e mafai ona tu'u ese la'asaga uma e lua.

O le vaitaimi e sefulutolu vaiaso o se vaitaimi o le poloaiga: o le soona fai e lē faapea ai ua faaleaogaina le sala tupe.

O mea e te fai atu i le taimi o le asiasiga e avea ma faʻamaoniga

E masani lava ona fa'avae sala tupe i luga o fa'amatalaga na ave mai pule, supavaisa ma le aufaigaluega i le fale faigaluega i le taimi o le asiasiga, ma fa'amaumauina i le lipoti o le ofisa ona fa'alagolago lea i ai o se mea moni ua fa'amaonia. E fa'amamafa e fa'amasinoga Holani se fa'amaoniga taua i se lipoti na tusia e se supavaisa ua fa'atagaina, ma o le tete'e i ai i le tausaga na sosoo ai, mai le manatuaina, e seasea ona aoga.

O loʻo i ai se feeseeseaʻiga moni. Mataupu 5:20 Ua faʻamalosia e le Awb tagata uma e tuʻuina atu i se supavaisa le galulue faʻatasi e mafai ona ia manaʻomia ma le talafeagai: avanoa, pepa o loʻo iai, faʻamaumauga. O le taimi lava e faʻamoemoe ai le fesiligia e faʻasalaina oe, ona pulea lea e le mataupu 5:10a Awb. I le faʻatinoina: tuʻuina atu pepa o loʻo iai tutoʻatasi mai ia te oe; ia sili atu le faʻaeteete i faʻamatalaga faʻamatala o ai na faia le faaiuga ma o ai na iloa le mea, aua o na mea e faʻamautuina ai le nofosala ma le avea ma tagata faigaluega moni. E leai se faʻaeteete e tatau ona faia i tagata faigaluega o loʻo fesiligia o ni molimau, ma o mea latou te fai mai e mafai lava ona faʻaaogaina e faasaga ia te oe.

O le a le tele, ma pe aisea e faʻaitiitia ai sala tupe

O le maualuga mo soliga ta'itasi ua fa'atulagaina e le tulafono (mataupu 5:46 Awb). O le tele o fa'atonu e lolomiina tulafono fa'avae mo sala tupe i totonu o lena tapula'a (beleidsregels, mataupu 4:81 Awb), lea e noatia ai le pulega ae le suia ai tiute e lua. Afai e le'o fa'atulagaina le aofa'i e le tulafono, e tatau ona fa'atulagaina le sala tupe i le ogaoga o le soliga ma le tulaga o le nofosala; afai ua fa'atulagaina, e tatau lava ona fa'atulaga se sala tupe maualalo pe afai e fa'ateleina tele ai tulaga fa'apitoa (mataupu uma e lua 5:46 Awb). E tatau fo'i i le pulega ona tu'ua lana lava faiga fa'avae pe afai o le fa'atinoina o le a le tutusa (mataupu 4:84 Awb). E toe iloilo atoa e le fa'amasinoga le aofa'i ma e mafai ona fa'atulaga le sala tupe lava ia. Finauga e manuia i le fa'atinoina:

• Tasi le nofosala. I le aso 13 o Iulai 2022 (ECLI:NL:RVS:2022:1973) na maua ai e le Vaega o le Pulega Fa'afoe se faiga fa'avae o le fa'asalaga a le Wav e le talafeagai ona o le le iloa o le eseesega o tulaga o le agasala ma fa'aaoga ai se fua fa'atatau - fa'amoemoe, fa'atamala tele, agasala masani, fa'aitiitia o le agasala. Na pa'ū le sala tupe mai le €36,000 i le €18,000. O le fa'afeagai: i le aso 17 o Setema 2025 (ECLI:NL:RVS:2025:4419) na taofia ai e le Vaega e fa'amoemoeina pisinisi e fa'ailoa i latou lava i tulafono fa'atatau, e aofia ai ma tulafono na toe teuteuina talu ai nei - e le o se 'alofaga le le iloa.
• Fa'aitiitia le gafatia e totogi ai. E mafai e tala tupe faaletausaga ma fuainumera o loʻo iai nei ona faʻaitiitia le sala tupe pe faia ai se faatulagaga mo le totogiina. E le aoga faʻamatalaga e aunoa ma ni tala tupe.
• Galulue fa'atasi ma le toe fa'aleleia. O le lipoti a le tagata lava ia, fa'amutaina vave o le soliga o le tulafono ma le fa'atinoina o tulafono e tausisia ai tulafono, o nei mea uma e fa'aitiitia ai le lamatiaga.
• Ua umi tele naua le fa'amasinoga. O le taimi talafeagai i lalo o le mataupu 6 ECHR e masani ona amata i le gaioiga lea e mafai ona e faʻamatalaina ai se sala tupe - e masani lava o le faʻaaliga o le faʻamoemoega - faʻatasi ai ma le tusa ma le lua tausaga o le faʻavae mo le tetee ma le apili muamua. O le Vaega o le Pule Faʻafoe e mulimuli i le laina a le CBb ma faʻaaoga se fua faʻatatau tumau: i le mataupu faavae o le 5 pasene faʻaitiitiga pe afai o le soʻona faʻaaogaina e oʻo atu i le ono masina ma le 10 pasene pe afai e umi atu, e noatia i se aofaʻiga maualuga atoatoa. Na faʻamaonia e le CBb i le aso 15 o Iulai 2025 (ECLI:NL:CBB:2025:372) mo soʻona faʻaaogaina e oʻo atu i le sefululua masina o le tapulaʻa e €2,500, faʻatasi ai ma le tele o avanoa mo le fetuʻunaʻi i tua atu.
• Leai se soliga muamua. O se talafaasolopito mama e faʻaitiitia ai le leaga; o le toe fai soo o le mea e sili ona faʻaita ai.

Galulue fa'atasi ma moliaga fa'asolitulafono: una via ma ne bis in idem

O le tele o amioga e mafai ona fa'asalaina fa'apulega o se solitulafono fo'i lea, ma o tulafono a Holani e fa'amalosia ai se filifiliga o le auala. E le mafai ona fa'asalaina se sala tupe mo se soliga ua uma ona fa'asalaina (mataupu 5:43 Awb), pe afai fo'i ua amata le moliaga fa'asolitulafono mo le amioga lava lea e tasi ma ua amata le fa'amasinoga, pe ua tu'uina atu se poloaiga fa'asalaga (mataupu 5:44 Awb).

Afai o le amioga o se solitulafono fo'i, e tatau i le pulega i le mataupu faavae ona faasino atu i le loia a le malo, ma e mafai ona faasalaina pe a teena e le loia, pe a mavae le sefulutolu vaiaso e aunoa ma se tali (mataupu 5:44 Awb) - o se vaitaimi e taofia ai le aso e gata ai le faaiuga (mataupu 5:51 Awb). Afai e poloaina mulimuli ane e le faamasinoga apili le moliaga, e muta le sala tupe (mataupu 5:47 Awb).

Faatonu, tagata faigaluega moni ma le fa'asalalauga faalua

O se tagata solitulafono o le tagata lea e faia pe faʻatasi ma le solia o le tulafono, ma o le mataupu 5:1 Awb e faʻaaogaina tulafono faʻasolitulafono i luga o noataga faʻapisinisi e ala i le faʻatusatusaga. E mafai e se tagata faʻaletulafono ona avea ma tagata solitulafono - ma e mafai foʻi e le tagata na faʻatonuina le amioga pe na tuʻuina atu le taʻitaʻiga moni i ai. O le mea lea, e mafai ona faʻasalaina se faʻatonu poʻo se pule o le nofoaga faʻatasi ai ma se sala tupe i le kamupani mo mea moni lava e tasi. E faʻaaogaina faʻapitoa e le au suʻesuʻe tau tupe lenei pule; e oʻo atu le Pulega o Leipa i tagata taʻitoʻatasi e ala i le manatu lautele o le pule faigaluega.

Mo vaega faavaomalo, e maoti le lamatiaga: e mafai ona taʻua patino se faatonu pule Holani, poʻo se pule mai fafo o loʻo i ai se pemita nofomau, i se faaiuga ona lolomiina lea. Tetee ese mai sala tupe patino - e masani ona sese mo se loia e toatasi ona fai ma sui o le kamupani ma le tagata lava ia.

Teteega, apili ma fesoasoani le tumau

• Teteega (bezwaar) i le pulega na faʻatonuina le sala tupe, i totonu o le ono vaiaso talu ona faʻasilasila (mataupu 6:7 Awb), faʻatasi ai ma le aia tatau i se faʻamasinoga (mataupu 7:2 Awb). O se teteʻe e taofia mulimuli ane i ni faʻavae faʻaopoopo e masani ona talafeagai.
• Apili (beroep) i le faamasinoga itumalo i totonu o le ono vaiaso talu ona faia le faaiuga i le tetee; mo le ACM, AFM ma le DNB, le Faamasinoga Itumalo o Rotterdam.
• Maualuga atu le tosina atu (hoger beroep) i totonu o le ono vaiaso — i le Vaega o le Pule Fa’afoe a le Fono a le Setete mo le Wav, Arbowet, Vreemdelingenwet ma le GDPR, ma i le Trade and Industry Appeals Tribunal (CBb) mo le vaavaaiga tau tupe ma le maketi.
• Toomaga le tumau (voorlopige voorziening) mai le faamasino fesoasoani muamua pe a iai le faanatinati (mataupu 8:81 Awb) — o le auala e taofia ai le totogiina po o le lolomiina a o faagasolo le mataupu.

O le tetee ma le apili e lē taofia ai le tiute e totogi (mataupu 6:16 Awb) se’i vaganā ua fa’atulaga e se tulafono fa’ava-o-malo se isi itu. O le a’afiaga fa’alilolilo e lē mulimuli mai le Awb ae mai tulafono fa’ava-o-malo, lea o le mataupu 1:105 Wft mo maketi tau tupe o le fa’ata’ita’iga sili lea ona manino. E tele pulega e tu’uina atu se tolopoina pe a talosagaina se’i vagana ua faia le tetee; afai e leai, o le fesoasoani fa’avaitaimi o le auala lea.

Lomiga: e masani lava o le faʻasalaga e sili ona afaina ai

For many companies the money is survivable and the press release is not. Financial supervisors must publish sanction decisions (art. 1:97 Wft and art. 1:98 Wft), the ACM publishes under art. 12u Instellingswet ACM, and other authorities publish under the proactive-disclosure duty in the Woo. The general disclosure legislation supplies the basis where a sectoral statute does not, but it is not a blank cheque. In its ruling of 27 December 2017 (ECLI:NL:RVS:2017:3571) the Administrative Jurisdiction Division set aside the publication of an enforcement decision because the decision itself was unlawful, so that publishing it caused disproportionate harm. That case was decided under the Wob, which the Woo replaced on 1 May 2022, but the proportionality test it applied has not changed.

O le lolomiina o se faaiuga ese lava e mafai ona apili, e masani ona logoina muamua faatasi ai ma se vaitaimi puupuu a o lei faamamaluina. O lena vaitaimi e iai e faaaoga. Lu’i le toe teuteuina, talu ai e tatau ona aveese faamatalaga e taua i tauvaga ma faamatalaga patino; finau i le faaleagaina e le tutusa i se mataupu e matua ese lava; finau e tatau ona faatali le lolomiina mo le iuga pe afai o le tulafono o le sala tupe ua matua masalosalo. E manaomia e mataupu taitasi se fesoasoani le tumau i totonu o ni nai aso. I lalo o le mataupu 1:97 Wft e tatau i le supavaisa ona matauina se vaitaimi faatali o aso faigaluega e lima pe a uma ona logoina le faaiuga a o lei lolomiina, ina ia mafai ai e se vaega e fiafia i ai ona talosagaina le faamasino fesoasoani muamua e taofi; o se faiga tutusa e mulimulita’i i le faailoaina i lalo o le Woo.

Vaitaimi fa'atapula'aina

E muta le pule e fa'asalaina ai se sala tupe i le lima tausaga talu ona mae'a le soliga pe afai e fa'aoga le faiga e sili atu ona mamafa, ma le tolu tausaga a leai; e taofia le vaitaimi a'o fa'atali le tete'e po'o le apili (mataupu 5:45 Awb). E muta le aia tatau e aoina ai se sala tupe ua fa'atulafonoina i le lima tausaga talu ona mae'a le vaitaimi o le totogiina (mataupu 4:104 Awb). Faatasi ai ma le fa'aauau pea o soliga, o le taimi e "tupu" ai le soliga e masani ona i'u ai i se fa'ai'uga - ma e aoga le faia vave.

O le a le mea e fai i le aso e taunuu ai se tagata asiasi

• Fesili mo se fa'amaoniga ma le fa'avae faaletulafono mo le asiasiga; ia matau le tulafono o lo'o fa'amalosia, le igoa o le tagata asiasi ma le taimi.
• Fesili pe o le asiasiga o se vaavaaiga pe o se faasalaga, ma pe o fesiligia oe o se tagata solitulafono e masalomia. Fesili mo le lapataiga pe afai o le a faasalaina.
• Telefoni i lau loia a'o le'i faia ni fa'atalanoaga taua. E te agavaa mo se fesoasoani (mataupu 2:1 Awb), ma o se fa'atuai pu'upu'u ma le faaaloalo e fa'atulaga ai e masani lava ona talafeagai.
• Filifili se tasi e fa'afeso'ota'i. E tatau i le aufaigaluega ona faaaloalo, tu'uina atu avanoa i pepa o lo'o iai, ma fa'asino fesili e uiga i fa'ai'uga, tiutetauave ma le malamalama i lena tagata fa'afeso'ota'i.
• Aua le faalavelave - ma aua lava ne'i faia ni pepa, toe fausia ni faamaumauga pe toe faasa'o se mea mulimuli ane. Ia teu sau lava faamaumauga o mea na fesiligia ma taliina, faapea foi ma ni kopi o mea uma na tuuina atu.
• Faitau so'o se fa'amatalaga a'o le'i sainia, fa'asa'o, ma aua lava ne'i sainia se fa'amatalaga i le gagana Holani e te le'i malamalama i ai.
• Faamaumau le aso e gata ai i le taimi lava e taunuu mai ai se mea: le vaitaimi o le zienswijze, ona ono vaiaso lea mai le taimi e faia ai le faaiuga.

Law & More fautuaina kamupani faavaomalo i Eindhoven ma Amsterdam on inspections, fining procedures and appeals. The useful moment to take advice is before the zienswijze, not after the decision. Legislation is pending: the Wet stroomlijning bestuurlijke boetemaxima en termijnen would align the administrative maxima with the criminal-law fine categories of art. 23 Sr, placing serious breaches in the sixth category, whose maximum is set in art. 23 Sr and indexed periodically, or a percentage of annual turnover.
