Wage Claim after Unlawful Dismissal in Delft: Up to What Amounts?

In Delft, with its thriving tech and university sector, in the event of null dismissal you do not serve a notice period and retain your right to wages. How do you effectively claim this at the District Court of The Hague?

Statutory Rules in Delft Context

Article 7:677 of the Dutch Civil Code obliges employers in Delft to continue paying wages for up to four weeks after dissolution of the contract. In cases of dismissal for prohibited reasons, such as discrimination among TU Delft researchers or startups in the Technopolis, this often extends further via a damages claim. Maximum amounts can reach €80,000 gross per year, depending on your seniority and sector, such as hightech or education.

Calculation Examples for Delft Residents

  • Monthly salary €4,500 (typical for Delft engineers): €18,000 for 4 weeks of continued payment.
  • With additional damages: Up to full-time equivalent until you find a new job, for example with companies around the TU Delft campus.

Judges at the District Court of The Hague, which handles Delft cases, regularly award 6-12 months' wages. Local trade unions such as FNV Horeca or CNV Diensten offer Delft-specific simulations and advice. Contact the Juridisch Loket in Delft for a free intake. (212 words)
