40 years priest

Last Pentecost Sunday marked the 40th anniversary of the priesthood of Monsignor de Jong, parish priest of Maastricht-East.

Business owners see labor costs rising by about 17 billion euros in 2023

Due to tight labor markets and high inflation, businesses will face sharply rising labor costs in 2023. In 2022, collective bargaining wages already rose 3.2 percent; it was the largest increase since 2008. This year, labor costs are expected to rise by as much as 6.1 percent. For the entire business sector, this will lead to an increase in labor costs of about 17 billion euros, according to calculations by ABN AMRO. Meanwhile, lower consumer purchasing power and rapidly rising interest rates are causing the economy to cool.

Own home does not go to box 3

Given the development of box 3 towards a new system of actual return, in which the way in which real estate - not being the owner-occupied home - is taxed has not yet been crystallized, it does not make policy sense to include the owner-occupied home scheme in this.
