Overview
- More than 100 Studentensportcentrum employees will receive back pay with interest for 2020–2026 after underpaid evening and weekend allowances, with on‑call staff also shorted on base pay.
- The affected cohort includes 15 permanent employees and about 90 on‑call workers, many of whom were students at the time.
- An internal audit in May 2025 uncovered the mispayments, and the university says individual calculations and outreach could take months.
- TU/e confirms the problems began in 2010 and will seek arrangements for earlier cases, with journalists estimating the total affected since 2010 could approach 250, while the university indicates that earlier cases may be limited.
- The announcement initially appeared hard to find on the TU/e website and was later moved to the homepage; a spokesperson attributed the issue to the site's technical functioning.
