In the Netherlands, a new Act came into force on 9 July 2010 with regard to the extension of the possibility to conclude fixed-term contracts with young workers up to 27 years. The Act allows for concluding a total of four, rather than three successive fixed-term employment contracts with regard to this group. Consecutive employment contracts may be effective for four years, rather than three, before being automatically transformed into a contract for an indefinite period. The Act will expire automatically after two years.
