Seminar on the basic principles of international assignments Module I – Duty of care, definitions and the role of HR, introduction to immigration and residency laws / Online

Extensive knowledge in 4 modules

Posting employees abroad requires intensive and careful preparation by HR management and payroll accounting. In this context, the interface between these two areas is particularly important. In order to comply with the increased duty of care and to ensure a legally secure assignment, tax and social security basics are just as much a matter of necessity as the correct drafting of an posting contract and a posting directive. In addition, consideration must be given to the relevant entry and residence laws and the particularities of mapping an international payroll. For this purpose, we have divided the two-day attendance seminar into 4 modules and offer them online on 4 days. You can book the modules individually.

This practice-oriented seminar provides the basic knowledge for a successful international employee assignment and helps participants to be able to assess cases of international assignment and to handle them in a legally secure manner.

Modules I:

• Important definitions (e.g. „expatriate“ / „impatriate“, principles of posting, definition of various forms of posting)
• Employer’s duty of care and recognising liability risks
• Description of the role of the human resources department
• Introduction to entry and residence regulations

Seminar goal:
