The labour inspectorate has published a brochure that explains to workers the difference between a business trip and the posting of workers. In the brochure potential abuses are defined as the withholding of payment, the deduction of administrative costs and the refusal of a decent contract. The Annexes provide a clear reference to the legislation applicable in case of cross-border employment. The publication fits in a campaign that is developed in cooperation with inspectorates of other countries (notably the Finnish inspectorate).
