Van Dijk-Silos was chair of the Independent Electoral Commission (Dutch:Onafhankelijke Kiescommissie) for twelve years before she was appointed as minister. She also had her own law firm, which she transferred to her daughter.

On 7 July 2016 the oppositions parties Democratic Alternative '91 and Surinamese Labour Party, demanded the resignation of Van Dijk-Silos due to comments she had made about the trial over the December murders. The next day more parliamentarians joined the call. Van Dijk-Silos reacted by first saying the had no message to the calls for her resignation and subsequently that the opposition parliamentarians had lied in their letter to President Dési Bouterse.
