Secondment of an employee abroad – Documentation

Seconding an employee to work in another European Union country requires proper preparation – both formal and organizational. Preparing the necessary documentation is just one element of the entire procedure, which requires knowledge not only of the Labor Code.

Employer’s obligations in employee secondment

When planning to second employees to work in EU countries, it is important to be aware that the employer’s obligations may vary depending not only on the host country, but also on the nature of the profession being performed.

The list of tasks includes, among others, preparing an annex to the employment contract tailored to the target market as well as other export-related documents.
