Guide for Mobile Workers in Europe (2022)

h

The Guide for Mobile Workers in Europe is issued by the European Trade-Union Confederation (ETUC). The ETUC coordinates 46 Interregional Trade-Union Councils (IRTUC). The IRTUCs are associations of the regional trade union organisations in the many border areas to support local, often cross-border mobile workers in defending and pursuing their social and economic interests.

This Guide for Mobile Workers in Europe, published by the ETUC in its fifth and updated ediition, is dedicated particularly to those who inform and advise this group of Europe-wide mobile workers, including especially the EURES advisers who are trained by the European Commission in issues of the mobility of workers at transnational and cross-border level and are active in employment services, trade unions or employers’ organisations.

Do I need a work permit?

Will my professional qualification be recognised?

Which labour applies to me?

What do I have to if I am unemployed?

In which country do I have to pay taxes?

The Guide is available in the following languages: English, French and German.

The Executive Summary is available in the following languages: English, French, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish and Romanian.
