Registration with UBN and placement into employment

When you register, please provide us with the following personal information:

  • NAW data

  • Email address
  • Date of birth
  • What education(s)/work experience(s)/certifications you possess
  • Whether you possess a driver's license (if and to the extent relevant to the position)
  • Availability and desired salary

Should you choose to provide us with your curriculum vitae (hereafter, "resume") when registering, please include the following information: name (initials, given names, surname, call sign), address, telephone number, email address, desired professions/functions, work experience, education, courses and competencies. We discourage you from including any information other than these in your resume.

If special requirements are set for a particular job in terms of medical suitability, UBN may in certain situations obtain information about your medical suitability for the job by means of a medical examination. The result of that examination (and not the medical data itself) will be provided to UBN by the company doctor only after you have given your consent.

If a Certificate of Good Behavior (VOG) is necessary for the (desired) position, UBN is permitted to record in the records that a VOG has been issued. Should a VOG not be issued, UBN will not record anything about it in the records.

You do not have to provide information about your health to UBN if it is not directly relevant to the performance of the job for which you are applying. However, you are required to report health conditions that you know or should understand would make you unsuitable for the position.

 

Provision of personal data to client

If compatible with the purpose for which you provided UBN with your personal data, UBN is allowed to provide your personal data to potential clients. UBN will provide no more information than necessary for the purposes for which you have provided UBN with your personal data. This concerns the following personal data: name, place of residence, date of birth, e-mail address, telephone number, education, work experience (if and insofar as relevant to the position), courses (if and insofar as relevant to the position), other data relating to your work experience (if and insofar as relevant to the position).

If and to the extent relevant to the position, UBN may also provide the following information to potential clients: whether you have a driver's license, whether a Certificate of Good Behavior (VOG) has been issued to you. If no VOG has been issued, we will not make any statements about this to the potential client. If a medical examination is required: whether you are suitable for the position (based on the medical examination).

The moment you start working for a client of UBN, UBN may also provide your BSN and number of your ID, and if applicable, a copy of your residence permit, to the client.

 

ZZP'ers

For freelancers, UBN also processes the following data: bank account number, Chamber of Commerce registration number, excerpt from the Chamber of Commerce trade register, copy of third-party liability insurance (relating to the company's liability), VAT number. No copy of identity card or BSN will be provided. However, if the self-employed person comes from a non-EEA country (all EU countries plus Liechtenstein, Norway and Iceland), a copy of proof of identity is processed. Finally, a copy of residence permit or work permit is processed if applicable.

 

During the employment contract

During the term of the employment contract, UBN is permitted to process certain personal data about you in your personnel file. These include complaints, warnings, personal work notes from the supervisor, vacation entitlements and correspondence about performance. UBN is permitted (whether required or not) to process certain personal data of yours, for the purpose of payroll administration. These include pay slips, wage garnishments, pension information, annual statements and a payroll tax statement. In case of a sick report, UBN may process a number of your personal data, such as: the (nursing) address, the probable duration of your absence, current appointments and activities and whether you fall under one of the safety net provisions of the Sickness Benefits Act (but not under which safety net provision). After the company doctor has been consulted, among other things, it is processed which work you are no longer or still able to perform and any advice on adjustments, work facilities or interventions to be made by UBN for reintegration.

Situations may arise that make the provision of certain personal data about you necessary for the protection of UBN's or the client's legitimate interests. This may be the case, for example, if specific reintegration activities must take place in connection with your reintegration.

 

Providing personal data to others than clients

UBN may disclose your personal data to others if compatible with the stated purposes and bases, including suppliers, audit bodies, government agencies and companies and/or persons UBN has engaged to perform certain tasks (including processors).

 

Retention periods

Your personal data will be kept as long as this is necessary for the realization of the purposes. After the (legal) retention period, your personal data will be destroyed. If you have not worked for UBN, UBN will in any case not retain your personal data for longer than two years. If a copy of your proof of identity was made at the time of your registration, UBN will retain this copy until it is no longer necessary. In any event, UBN destroys the copy no later than four weeks after the copy is entered in UBN's records, unless you have entered into an employment contract with UBN during that four-week period. At the time you notify UBN that you no longer wish to be mediated into employment, UBN will delete all your personal data from its system at that time. If an employment contract (or other type of relationship) has been concluded between you and UBN and has ended, UBN will not retain your personal data for longer than two years, unless UBN has a legal obligation to retain the personal data longer. A longer (legal) retention obligation applies to UBN (in any case) in the following situations:

  1. Personal data relating to your health may be kept longer than two years if there is an employment conflict or a dispute over the award of disability benefits. The relevant data will be deleted when the conflict/dispute has ended.
  2. For all personal data contained in payroll records, UBN retains them for seven years.
  3. Form loonheffingen that you filled out (at least the document in which you indicated that UBN should or should not take the payroll tax credit into account), copy of ID, name with initials, date of birth, Citizen's Service Number, address with zip code, place of residence, and in case you do not live in the Netherlands, the country of residence and the region of residence are kept for five years.

If a reintegration file was built up during your employment - in case of long-term illness - and it was closed again during your employment, UBN will in principle retain this reintegration file for no longer than two years (after completion of the reintegration). Administrative data about your sick leave (such as data for the continued payment of wages, date of the sick report, duration of the absence and the date of recovery) are in principle kept for a maximum of two years after the employment relationship has ended.

If UBN is self-insurer for the Sickness Benefits Act (ZW), the data necessary for self-insurance will be retained for a maximum of five years. If UBN is self-insurer for the Work Resumption of Partially Disabled Workers (WGA) scheme, the relevant data will be retained for the duration of the WGA trajectory (i.e. a maximum of ten years).

 

Business relationships

We process the following personal data from employees or representatives of our (potential) business associates (hereinafter "associates"):

  • (Business) contact information.
  • Phone number
  • Email address
  • Function

Personal data of relations are processed by UBN for maintaining a business relationship, establishing, maintaining and performing the agreement between UBN and the relation, providing information, complying with legal obligations incumbent on UBN.

UBN processes the personal data of business relations, because this is necessary for the performance of the agreement or because there is a legal obligation (e.g., tax obligations) or because it has a legitimate interest to do so (e.g., providing information) or with your consent (requesting information through the contact form on the website). UBN may pass on the personal data of relations to others if this is in the interest of providing its services (legitimate interest), including (prospective) employees, suppliers, audit bodies, government agencies, subcontractors and to companies and/or persons it has engaged to perform certain tasks (including processors). In addition, UBN may transfer the personal data of relations to others if UBN is required to do so under applicable laws and/or regulations, court order or judgment or after you have given your consent.

 

Personal data protection

UBN takes various security measures to ensure that your personal data is protected. Personal data can be accessed only by authorized personnel within UBN. Digital files are accessible only through personal login credentials of authorized personnel. UBN engages third parties and/or processors to provide services related to the management and security of its systems. UBN may provide personal data to these third parties. UBN only authorizes these parties to use this data in connection with the services they provide. No data processing takes place outside the EEA. Should this change in the future, appropriate or suitable safeguards will be met.
