Extra-legal benefits, incentives and extras: what are they worth?

The basic salary is increasingly being supplied with extra-legal benefits, including a phone or laptop, a gym membership or a company car. Incentives and extra benefits, such as flexible work hours, are also gaining importance and are often valued more than just the basic salary.

The demand for professionals with specific skills is higher than the supply. Companies are dealing with fierce competition and it’s becoming increasingly challenging to find talent. As a result candidates can make more demands, and employers are having to pull out all the stops to meet them.

How did we obtain the data in the Salary Guide?

We collected the valuable information in our Salary Guide via an independent survey among 200 Dutch CFOs and 300 Dutch senior managers with recruitment authority.

Furthermore, the study is based on local insights from our consultants and managers and thousands of filled vacancies and job interviews throughout our offices.
