Our clients are general contractors, construction firms and specialist companies operating in the following sectors: commercial construction, port infrastructure, industrial installations, renewable energy.

We know how important compliance is for a general contractor — especially on projects financed with public funds or delivered for listed companies. That’s why we maintain current NEN 4400-1, SNA-Keurmerk and VCU certifications, audited annually.

    Frequently asked questions

    What you should know before starting cooperation

    How long does it take to assemble a construction crew for a project in the Netherlands?
    The standard process from initial enquiry to work starting on site takes on average 5 working days. For projects requiring specialist qualifications (e.g. EN ISO 9606-1 certified welders, high-altitude structure fitters) the process can extend to 7–10 days. We work with an active pool of verified workers, which significantly shortens the recruitment process.
    In what billing model does BW BestWork operate?
    We bill on an hourly or project basis, depending on the specifics of the assignment. The client receives a monthly invoice with a detailed breakdown of hours worked by each worker. All financial terms — hourly rate, transport costs, tools — are clearly set out in the framework agreement before cooperation starts.
    Do the workers hold the required VCA safety certifications?
    Yes. Every worker deployed by BW BestWork holds a valid VCA Basic or VCA VOL certificate (Veiligheid Certificaat Aannemers). Welders hold certifications in line with EN ISO 9606-1, and scaffolders hold VSB qualifications. All certifications are verified before the worker is sent to the site. More about our certifications is available on the About Us page.
    How does BW BestWork protect the client against chain liability for tax obligations?
    We hold the SNA-Keurmerk certification issued by Stichting Normering Arbeid, which is the primary safeguard against chain liability (ketenaansprakelijkheid). In addition we hold the NEN 4400-1 certification, audited annually for tax and HR compliance. A full list of our certifications is available in the public industry registers.
    Does BW BestWork handle projects across the whole of the Netherlands?
    Yes — we deliver projects across the whole of the Netherlands. Our main areas of operation are Rotterdam (port and heavy industry), Amsterdam, The Hague, Utrecht, Eindhoven and the Maasvlakte port area. We arrange transport for workers to the construction site.
    Can I get references from existing BW BestWork clients?
    Yes. At the framework agreement negotiation stage we share references from our long-term clients — general contractors and construction firms we work with on a recurring basis. Contact details are only shared with the referring client’s consent, in order to maintain business confidentiality.
    What happens if a deployed worker does not meet expectations?
    If there are any concerns about a worker’s competence or attitude, the client notifies their dedicated project manager. Within 48 hours we present a replacement specialist with the same qualifications. The worker whose engagement has been ended returns to our pool for further verification. Replacement rules are precisely defined in the framework agreement.
    Do you arrange transport for workers to the construction site?
    Yes — we arrange transport for workers from their accommodation in the Netherlands directly to the construction site. Transport costs are clearly itemized in the framework agreement as a separate billing line. We provide regular runs aligned with the site work schedule.
