The workshop is prepared for practitioners of posting, both those beginning to work in this area and experienced ones. We also invite (always free of charge) representatives of the Social Insurance Institution processing applications for the issuance of A1 certificates, as well as those cooperating with liaison institutions of other member states in response to inquiries to verify the conditions for insured persons to remain under Polish legislation. Academics are also invited. The Posting Lab will be led by ELMI Vice President Dr. Marek Benio.

Workshop topics

Determining the legislation applicable to social security in various cross-border situations. Coordination of systems, the principle of a single legislation, the principle of lex loci laboris and the conditions for deviating from it in favor of not transferring insured persons between systems of different countries. The ability to consciously direct the conditions for the application of specific legislation. Full compliance with the law. The pitfalls of temporarily working in another member state and the pitfalls of working in two or more member states.
