Terms and Conditions

Reinbursement of Travel Costs

The amount of your commuting allowance depends on your travel distance and mode of transport. Check the table for an overview.

See also the video below for more information (select English subtitles via the wheel-icon).

The collective labor agreement allowance for commuting is €0.18 per km. This is less than the tax-exempt maximum of €0.23 per km (amounts for 2024). For the difference and for kilometers above the 40 km limit, you can use the tax exchange scheme in the flexible benefits model (KMA).

The collective labor agreement allowance is paid monthly, and the KMA allowance is paid annually with your holiday pay. The tax space is automatically optimized.

Are you already participating in the KMA commuting allowance? Then you do not need to submit a new application when the collective labor agreement allowance starts.

Pension

All Radboudumc staff accumulate their pension with the ABP pension fund. Radboudumc pays 70% of the pension contributions. You pay the remainder of the contributions yourself from your gross salary. The salary administration holds this amount back every month and transfers it to the ABP. For further information about the ABP pension, go to www.abp.nl.

You accumulate pension on your gross salary up to a maximum of €112,189 (2021 price level). This is referred to as the pension cap. If you earn more, you can save voluntarily for your pension. This can be done through the ABP net pension scheme, but you can also opt for a different solution. This is entirely up to you.

If you are accumulating a pension elsewhere, you can transfer your pension to the ABP.

Group Health Insurance

Radboudumc offers its staff a choice between two group health insurance policies: UMC Zorgverzekering and CZ collectief. Both health insurances offer staff and their families attractive rebates.

Disability Insurance

All Radboudumc staff have disability insurance free of charge. You contribute automatically to the basic insurance package, unless you cancel your participation in writing within two months of starting work.

You will find further information on this insurance package on the website of the Loyalis group insurance policy.

Life Insurance

Life Insurance

As staff member at Radboudumc, you can take out group life insurance. This insurance policy pays out an amount to your partner in the event of your death. This may provide a welcome addition to any payout under the Surviving Dependents' Act (Anw) or other provision that you may have arranged yourself. As contributions to group life insurance are voluntary for UMC staff, the premiums are at your own expense. You must register for this insurance within two months of starting work. You will find further information on this insurance on the website. This website has been specially created for UMC staff by the NFU and Ecclesia EBC.

Leave

As fulltime Radboudumc employee, you have a right to approximately 168 hours of leave (more than 23 days) per year. You are allowed to purchase a maximum of 48 additional hours of leave with your end-of-year bonus.

In addition to the leave days, there are seven public holidays (5 May is a holiday once every five years) under the UMC CLA. Naturally, we also have the statutory leave forms, such as parental leave and care leave. Under the UMC CLA, statutory short-term care leave has been extended from four weeks to 12 weeks for immediate family members.
 
For certain personal events, you have a right to (paid) leave under our CLA. There are also possible situations where you can reach agreement with your supervisor on additional (unpaid) leave.

Parental Leave

What is parental leave?

Parental leave is the right to leave to spend more time with your child. You have the right to a maximum of 26 weeks of parental leave: 17 working weeks unpaid and nine working weeks paid. Radboudumc will continue to pay 70% of your salary (up to the maximum daily rate) while you are on parental leave. We apply for a payout for this from the UWV.

For whom?

Both parents may avail themselves of parental leave. 

Taking parental leave

You are allowed to decide for yourself how you take your parental leave; the entire leave in one go, or in segments. It may also be spread over several periods, provided that you take the paid leave before your child has turned one year old. And you must take the unpaid leave before your child has turned eight years old.

Applying for parental leave

Apply for your parental leave by letting your supervisor know at least two months before the desired starting date. You can do this as soon as you have started work. If you have already taken part of your parental leave at a previous employer, request a statement from the previous employer stating how much parental you still have outstanding. You can take the outstanding balance with you to Radboudumc.
