Housing

Practical information

When you begin working via AB Midden Nederland, you will be assigned a house. We provide accommodation for every temporary employee, anytime they need it. It does not matter if you work for 2 weeks or longer than 3 months. You will have to arrive in the Netherlands by own means of transport or with help of a travel agent. This is at your own cost. You will receive your accommodation address in the Netherlands before you arrive. This address will be as close to work as possible. You also receive the phone number of someone that lives in the house and of your coordinator. You can contact them if you need help. All our accommodations can be either houses or flats. We keep our houses clean and nice. Anything broken will be replaced or repaired. If a wall requires painting and a floor needs fixing, this will be arranged as well.

Facilities

Your house has a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom, a toilet, and several bedrooms. Every house has an average of 7 residents. Two person bedrooms are the most common. In some buildings, there are single person bedrooms. Every bedroom has a lock and key so you can store private things there safely. We understand that having privacy is important. You have a personal wardrobe for clothes and a bed with mattress and sheet.

The kitchen has a fridge and freezer with enough space for food storage. It comes fully equipped with kitchen utensils, cutlery, and tableware. There are a stove and microwave for cooking. The bathroom comes with a shower or bathtub and a washing machine. Every place has a good WiFi-network so you can fix everything for work online. TVs are not included. Coordinators regularly check on the house because we want the living places to be in great condition.

Payment and work change

The payment for your residence will be subtracted from your salary each week. The weekly price includes the use of water, gas, electricity, and wireless internet. When work is finished at one employer, you might have to move to another location. That means you will be assigned another house close to the new job. Want to know more about payment?
