The FNV wants PostNL to show decisiveness and take steps towards a better and safer working environment. According to the FNV, about 90 percent of people work for the parcel deliverer through a temporary employment agency. That is cheaper, Jekkers explains, because you do not have to pay people through illness, you do not have to pay a pension and people always start in the lowest pay scale. Moreover, many migrant workers work there and they are afraid of losing their jobs. They do not always know where to report abuses. The Labor Inspectorate is also investigating the role of the employment agencies involved and the legality of work in the Netherlands by these employees.
There are many incidents at Post NL, especially in Nieuwegein, and the Labor Inspectorate raises the alarm
