Explanation:
... being assessed for tax and national insurance unpaid by your subcontractors.

'Verhaalrisico' refers to the risk that a main contractor bears for the correct payment of taxes and national insurance contributions by his subcontractors. This is regulated in the Wet Ketenaansprakelijkheid. If a subcontractor doesn't pay taxes and national insurance contributions for his workers, the tax authority will assess these on (or 'recover them from') the main contractor.

-> "Wanneer is er sprake van de Wet Ketenaansprakelijkheid. Zodra er sprake is van onderaanneming is in principe de Wet Ketenaansprakelijkheid van toepassing. Dit betekent dat u als hoofdaannemer hoofdelijk aansprakelijk bent voor de afdracht van loonheffing, premies volksverzekeringen en premies werknemersverzekeringen van uw onderaannemer c.q onder onderaannemers."

-> "De SVU regelt de beperking van inlenersaansprakelijkheid, dat wil zeggen het verhaalrisico van premie- en belastingafdracht op organisaties die uitzendkrachten inlenen van uitzendondernemingen."

tax shortfall recoupment risk


Explanation:
cf. in the UK the 'lump' building site tax system of old until abused - the payroll was uncertain with too many subcontracted navvies/brickies coming and going, so the head contractors paid a usually lowish lump sum in tax for PAYE/pay-as-you-earn.

Example sentence(s):
  • verhaalsrisico (Loss Given Default) 7 van aandeelhouders gelijk aan hun ... de omvang van hun verhaalsrisico.
  • This recoupment filing displayed the operational losses of the Facility for the ..... to date, produced in excess of $57 million of recoupment shortfall.
