Described by the European Labour Authority as a “commonly increasing phenomenon”, cross-border telework gives the opportunity to EU citizens and their family members to live and work from any Member State of the EU. However, it can be sometimes difficult for employers, employees or self-employed citizens to navigate through the complexity of the immigration, social security, tax and labour rules that need to be applied when working from two or more different EU countries.
Having built a strong expertise in the field, ECAS is hosting a free of charge training on cross-border telework, which will take place on June 27th, 2025.
Participants will be able to raise any questions linked to their daily work, and will also have the opportunity to network with other stakeholders who need to deal with cross-border issues.
The event will take place in Berlin and will be conducted in German. Although remote attendance is possible, we strongly encourage participants to join the training in person.
