Overview
WorkFlex sub-assessments now include practical and jurisdiction-specific guidance on top of the core cross-border employment law analysis, especially:
Local public holidays
Working time expectations
Other overriding local employment provisions
This helps reduce confusion that previously arose when different client policies treated local holidays and working time rules very differently.
Important to Know
Purpose: In EU cross-border work situations, certain local employment rules can apply even when the home employment contract remains in force. We have analyzed the relevant national legal frameworks and prevailing regulatory interpretations across jurisdictions to provide consistent, risk-based guidance.
Limitations: This update does not relate to posted workers scenarios. Those remain covered separately with their own strict local compliance rules.
How It Works
We analysed national frameworks and common authority interpretations to identify recurring themes, especially working time and public holidays.
For business trips without PWN and Workations: Clients will now see more concrete “do’s and don’ts” for the destination country.
Integration: Policy templates and employee guidance will reflect this updated approach.
