Industrial Pension Fund for Transport: always mandatory (or not)?
22 February 2021 - On January 19, the Arnhem-Leeuwarden Court of Appeal rendered a groundbreaking judgment, which (among other things) determined that a Dutch transport company does not have to contribute a pension to the industry pension fund for professional goods transport by road ("Bpf Vervoer") for employees who are usually employed in Germany if no explicit choice of law was made for these employees for Dutch law.
