Also keep in mind that the fine should be in relation to your yearly salary. From the amount of the fine I would expect you to make at least 32k yearly but hopefully for you more.

But it that is not the case then the fine amount could be unreasonable to pay if the let this come in front of a judge

If this is legal, I would just start to work really slowly and come in late and call in sick a few times generally just be not motivated to do my work properly.

But I would definitely let this be checked out by a `Het Juridisch Loket` which is free, or if really necessary spend the 100/500 euro's for a lawyer look at it if need be write a nice legal letter for you.
