Offboarding covers every step between notice of termination and deregistration. The employer confirms the end date in writing, calculates the final payslip including outstanding holiday allowance, unused leave days, pro-rata thirteenth month, and any transition payment (transitievergoeding) owed where the contract ends at the employer's initiative.
Payroll administration must issue a final annual statement (jaaropgaaf), deregister the employee from the wage tax system, close the pension record, and return company property. If the former employee is eligible for unemployment benefit, the employer supplies a correct salary history to UWV so the WW claim can be processed without delay. Recognised sponsors report the end of employment to IND within four weeks for migrant workers.
A structured exit protects both parties. Clear documentation, a signed settlement agreement where relevant, and a professional handover reduce disputes and preserve the employer brand for future rehires and referrals.
