INTRODUCTION
A "posted” worker is someone who is employed in one EU Member State and
sent by his/her employer on a temporary basis to carry out his work in another
Member State.
Moving
within the EU from one Member State to another for a limited period of time has
become an increasingly important feature of employment for companies and for
workers in the construction industry and it raises some important questions:
I am a
CONSTRUCTION COMPANY and I have to undertake temporarily some work in a
different Member State than the one in which I usually operate :
·
are
there any administrative obligations that I have to undertake before I start my
work ?
·
what
salary do I have to pay to my workers ?
·
I
am used to applying some health and safety rules in my home country, but are
they the same in the country where the worksite is located ?
I am a
CONSTRUCTION WORKER and I will be sent temporarily to a worksite situated in a
different Member State than the one in which I usually work :
·
what
salary does my employer have to pay me?
·
how
many maximum hours per day will I have to work ?
·
how
can I get in contact with the local trade unions ?
