Employees can take emergency leave when they unexpectedly need time off from work (e.g. a water main break in the home or an ill child). The time period should be reasonable, depending on why the leave is needed. Employees may need to take just a few hours in some cases, while other situations may require a full day or longer. Employers are expected to continue paying employees’ salaries during the leave period.

Linda is a big mind. She thinks about things that the rest normally overlook. The insight she has about the dutch job market can only be achieved through years of experience and persistence.
Her business savvy is complemented by her mastery of understanding the client's needs and requirements. For my career I could say, she was the “Mary Poppins”, who guided me through thick and thin and helped me to land a career in the Netherlands
