The workers are employed by an intermediate which deducts taxes and pension premiums in Romania under the EU’s A1 ruling. The workers are paid a living allowance while working, which is not subject to tax and premiums. This means it is far cheaper for the shipyards to employ them than ordinary workers. For trade union FNV, campaigning for decent wages, the Dutch and Romanian nationals at the shipyards are colleagues, not competitors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp align=\"left\" class=\"CM3\">English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.dutchnews.nl\u002Fnews\u002Farchives\u002F2016\u002F03\u002Fromanians-are-being-exploited-by-pay-tricks-at-dutch-shipyards-union\u002F\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.dutchnews.nl\u002Fnews\u002Farchives\u002F2016\u002F03\u002Fromanians-are-being-exploited … \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM3\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Willy De Backer \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:wdebacker@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">wdebacker@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
