If you are an end client you have come to the right address. We provide payroll and contract management services in the Netherlands, including related HRM services. We offer the best solution to any personnel issues you may have.
We make every effort to lighten your load. This means you can focus on your core business without having to worry about social contribution payments or taxes, sickness protocols (under the Eligibility for Permanent Incapacity Benefit (Restrictions) Act), continued payment of salary during annual leave or other special tax or employment law issues.
Or maybe you’d like to hire or borrow foreign workers and do not want to get drowned in migration laws and regulations. But of course you want everything to be done properly and above board.
Let’s list the advantages:
- No complex administrative hassle. Yellowstone will keep all personnel and salary records for you.
- Eliminate the risks of being an employer: Right from the start you will know what your salary costs are. You don’t have to pay the costs of continued payment in case of absence (due to sickness or inability to work) and don’t have to pay severance.
- Flexibility: It is fairly easy to let people go, and equally easy to hire temporary workers for projects.
- Work by the rules.
If you hire workers or independent contractors on a regular basis, from inside or outside the Netherlands, it is important that you are compliant. This means that you comply with the applicable laws and regulations. Our NEN-certification, our quarterly audit opinions, G-account and last but not least our experience of 22 years are guarantees that your company will hire people by the book.
How about the law?
As you will know, the rules change all the time. We make sure that we keep abreast of the latest laws by continuously updating our knowledge. Laws that take effect in the morning we will implement in the afternoon of that very same day. Our extensive (inter)national network of professionals allows us to change gears instantly. We take care of the legal nitty gritty so you don’t have to. Simple as that.
But what about liability?
It goes without saying that we will ensure that all liability risks will be excluded. Examples are the WAB (Balanced Labour Market Act), the Assessment of Employment Relationships (Deregulation) Act, and the Work and Security Act. And the same goes for the Wages and Salaries Tax and National Insurance Contributions (Liability of Subcontractors) Act and the Eligibility for Permanent Incapacity Benefit (Restrictions) Act). If you hire personnel through us, you need not concern yourself with any of these.
NEN-certified 4400-1
Yellowstone is registered with the Labour Standards Foundation (SNA) as a NEN 4400-1 certified company. More information about this can be found here.
If you use our payroll services, your workers will be in Yellowstone’s employment. We are their employer on paper, take care of the payroll records and assume the bulk of your responsibilities. For instance: you need not continue paying salary to sick employees and we keep leave records.
We will also make sure that you as (end user) client will never have to face additional tax assessments and penalties. We rule out all liability risks for social insurance contributions and tax payments. In addition, we will assume responsibility for all attendant risks, such as the costs related to invalidity.

Payroll Services: This Is How It Works
Together we decide which responsibilities we will take over from you. We then record the details in an agreement. You can hire us to provide several HRM services, such as keeping your personnel files or writing a personnel handbook. You will pay us an all-inclusive fee, for which we will send you monthly invoices. Out of this fee we will pay the salaries and make other payments.
Yellowstone’s contract management will help you minimise the risks of hiring freelancers. We will draft and oversee watertight contracts and monitor running contracts. In this way we can avoid problems with social insurance contributions, taxes, the Flexibility and Security Act and the National Insurance Contributions (Liability of Subcontractors) Act.
Contract Management: This Is How It Works
We will screen the company with which you want to enter into a contract. Further to our screening we will determine the risk profile, together with you. If the risk profile does not provide the certainty you need, we will perform a more expansive compliance check. We will also keep the contracts made under the Flexibility and Security Act to avoid that employment relationships arise. We handle invoices and payments, and lastly, we check the compliance certificate.
Compliance Certificate
This is the accountant’s statement about the company’s financial status. This statement might contain a description of payment performance regarding taxes and social insurance contributions. Every quarter we ask the company supplying your workers for a certificate. Whenever the certificate shows that the company cannot offer security, we advise that payments be made to the Tax Authorities directly. This is how your company will be protected against claims for recipients’ liability.
Freelancer
The Tax Authorities may consider the hiring of freelancers as a notional employment relationship. This means that you would still have to pay taxes and insurance contributions for those freelancers. Hiring independent freelancers through Yellowstone eliminates those risks. We check everything and arrange for payments to agencies where necessary.
Together with you we will put together a service package tailored to your exact demands.
Just a random selection:
- Outsourcing
- Payroll records
- Strategic HR partnership
- Registration and application of collective bargaining agreements
- Writing a personnel handbook
- Drafting employment agreements, car expense and tuition assistance schemes
- Relocation services, such as arranging for work permits and housing of foreign workers
