PayChecked in Transport: for security in the logistics chain
Do you have a transport or logistics company? With the PayChecked in Transport hallmark, you show that you pay your employees correctly and that your payroll administration is in order. The quality mark gives clients confidence. You show that you work according to the applicable rules and that you have a grip on your processes.
Normec is authorized to perform these checks and guides you smoothly through the process. With our experience and knowledge we ensure clarity and an efficient process.
PayChecked and the Wet Aanpak Schijnconstructies (Wages and Salaries Act)
The quality mark was set up by Transport en Logistiek Nederland (TLN) and entrepreneurs' association Evofenedex. The reason was the introduction of the Wet Aanpak Schijnconstructies (WAS). According to this law, clients can be held liable when employees, or employees of contractors, are not paid correctly. Obviously, you want to avoid that risk.
With PayChecked in Transport, you demonstrate that you comply with the requirements of the law and that your wage payments are set up correctly.
