It has been noted that over 5 million workers or employees in the EU are relocated temporarily by their employer in another EU country. To adhere to EU legislation, this process is complex for businesses as they need to fill diverse documentation, different for each country, when posting workers. The European Commission has proposed to centralise this process and reduce the administrative burden by creating a single digital declaration portal for companies.
The portal will reduce the administrative burden, enhance cooperation amongst EU countries and offer better worker’s protection. Initially the participation will be voluntary, and it is expected that the participating countries will realise lower administrative costs for posting workers.
