The Netherlands has liberalized worker rights to the point it would make Elon Musk cry. This place is a weird mix of Marxism and laissez-faire capitalism.

- BLanen 5y agoThere is nothing Marxist about The Netherlands. Maybe if you actually read some stuff, you'd know this.
- denton-scratch 5y agoThe Netherlands is complying with a European Directive: 2001/23/EC. In the UK, that directive is embodied in the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) 2006 (TUPE) regulations. Basically, the directive prevents businesses sidestepping laws and contracts that protect employees' rights by transferring those employees to another organisation. Seems reasonable to me (if you share my view that employees have rights).
