Arbitrageclausules in arbeidsovereenkomsten

According to fixed, but somewhat older, case law of the Dutch Supreme Court, an arbitration clause in an employment contract is valid. This is also the case when the individual employment contract refers to the applicability of a collective labor agreement and such collective labor agreement contains an arbitration clause. Does this case law require adjustment, inter alia, taking into account developments in this area in consumer law? The writer of this article answers that question in the affirmative.
