If the assignment is based on, for example, 2004 hours, this means that these hours must be fully worked before a potential transition to the client company can take place.
It is important to note that any absence, such as sick leave, parental leave, care of a sick child (VAB), or any other type of leave, affects the calculation of the actual hours worked. Absence is not counted toward the 2004 hours, which means that the transition date will automatically be postponed by the corresponding number of hours you have been absent.
This ensures that the agreed-upon working hours for the assignment are fulfilled before a potential transition can take place.
