In this episode of The Inside Track, Grace Shie and Paul Sarauskas break down the EU Posted Workers Directive — the law designed to protect workers who are temporarily sent into the European Union to perform services. They discuss what triggers a posted worker notification, how requirements vary significantly across EU member states, and why even short-term business trips by non-EU citizens into the EU can create filing obligations. Paul walks through the full compliance lifecycle, from pre-trip assessments and notification filings to ongoing document retention requirements, and highlights the potentially severe penalties for non-compliance. The episode closes with practical tips for employers looking to build a robust process for managing posted worker obligations across their global mobility programs.

And that's the EU Posted Workers Directive and the filing of posted worker notifications. So today we're going to talk about what is a posted worker. What does this directive require of employers who have a posted worker? And what are some of the common pitfalls to watch for? So let's go ahead and get started. Paul, thank you for joining me today.
