L&E GLOBAL CROSS-BORDER REMOTE WORK FAQs

Harmers Workplace Lawyers is proud to release our latest L&E Global international publication and dedicated microsite for 2021: L&E Global Cross-Border Remote Work FAQs.

This publication focuses on one of the most important trends reshaping the workplace in the 21st Century – foreign nationals working remotely for a foreign employer in a host country.

The FAQS present timely insights and analysis on a range of labour issues that have surged in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, including 28+ individual country overviews, which feature:

• work authorisation and visa requirements;
• applicability of local social security and other payroll obligations;
• circumstances that could subject the remote worker to local employment law regulations;
• specific rules that govern remote work in the host country;
• employee’s exposure to local income tax; and
• permanent establishment risks for the foreign company by virtue of remote worker’s activities.

The L&E Global Cross-Border Remote Work FAQs are an example of our continued commitment to providing our clients with informative resources to assist with cross-border employment law needs. It is our privilege to provide the latest developments and analysis from our L&E Global alliance partner firms across the world.
