A work accident can have major consequences, including incapacity to work. If you can no longer work temporarily or completely due to an accident at work, this can lead to significant loss of income. Fortunately, in the Netherlands you are entitled to compensation if your employer is liable. At Arslan Advocates, we help you to recover this damage from the liable party.
Loss of income after a work accident: what can you claim?
In case of incapacity to work due to a work accident, you can claim various forms of loss of income, including:
- Less salary: If your employer only pays 70% of your salary, you can recover the loss of 30%.
- No irregularity allowance or overtime: This missed income is also part of the damage.
- Pension build-up and bonuses: Loss of this can be included in the statement of damage.
- Benefits with income loss: For example, when you receive a benefit that is lower than your regular salary.
- Incomes from extra work: Like tips, bonuses or ‘black’ income.
Our specialized personal injury attorneys accurately calculate your total damage based on pay slips and other financial data.
