Background of the assignment

Description of directorate/service/department: The Public Prosecution Service (OM) – together with the police and other chain partners – is responsible for the investigation and prosecution of criminal offenses. This ranges from shoplifting to murder and from tax evasion to cybercrime and terrorism. The work of the OM aims to ensure that perpetrators receive an appropriate punishment and that victims and their relatives feel that their interests have been handled carefully.

The Public Prosecution Service (OM) consists of a head office (the Prosecutor General's Office), 10 district prosecutor's offices, 1 LRO (national regional organization), and several 'special' units, namely the National Prosecutor's Office, the Functional Prosecutor's Office, the CVOM Prosecutor's Office (Central Processing OM), the DVOM (Service Organization OM), the IVOM (Information Provision OM), and the National Investigation Service. The Public Prosecution Service is located at approximately 35 locations throughout the Netherlands. Approximately 6,000 people work for the OM in total.

The College of Prosecutors General heads the OM. The College is responsible for the entire OM and focuses on formulating new enforcement guidelines and developing investigation and prosecution policy. The College is also responsible for the organization and operations. The prosecutor's offices are headed by a head of a business unit who is responsible for the primary tasks of a district or region or a nationally operating unit. Each part of the OM has its own dynamics, areas of focus, and, in some cases, specialisms.

The following 5 multi-year ambitions have been determined for this: reliable IV services, digital resilience (cyber security), modern and flexible IT landscape, accessible and meaningful information, and a mature IV organization.

We do this with more than 300 professionals, who ensure that our approximately 6,000 OM colleagues can work seamlessly, every day.

Additional Information

When you, as a supplier, offer a professional to us and they are placed, we need information from you as a contracting party, including regarding the Chain Liability (Wet keten- en inlenersaansprakelijkheid). The 'WKA' aims to prevent abuse in the remittance of payroll taxes at all links in the chain; from supplier to client. We cover these risks for our clients by means of a blocked account, the G-account. This is an account to which a portion of the invoice amount is deposited and from which you can pay payroll taxes and VAT to the Tax Authorities.

The percentage to be deposited depends on whether you have a SNA certification (NEN-4400-1 or NEN-4400-2) and whether your company is established in the Netherlands or abroad. You can apply for the G-account from the Tax Authorities. If you cannot obtain a G-account (and you can provide proof of this from the Tax Authorities), you also have the option to provide an accountant's statement (assurance report regarding personnel lending) every quarter. In this, a certified accountant (AA or RA) will issue a statement about the accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of the remittances.

Please note, the costs for this statement are at your own expense.
