The Performance and Development Agreement serves as a foundational document in Dutch employment relationships, typically implemented when establishing or formalizing performance management and professional development processes. This agreement is particularly relevant for organizations seeking to establish clear, measurable objectives and development pathways for their employees while ensuring compliance with Dutch employment law and privacy regulations. It includes detailed provisions for performance evaluation, career development opportunities, training commitments, and mutual obligations of both parties.
