POSTING OF WORKERS IN THE EUROPEAN UNION: BETWEEN LIMITING POLICIES AND STIMULATING STANDARDS

Summary/Abstract: Labour mobility in the European Union, including by posting of workers, is recognized as essential to keep Europe competitive. Posted workers have an essential role in matters of covering the problems of ensuring labour and skills in various sectors and regions, such as constructions, agriculture and transportation. On the other hand, a number of negative phenomena such as unfair competition and social dumping are associated with this mode of carrying out labour relations. This is why the author presents the essential rules of Directive 96/71/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 1996, concerning the posting of workers in the framework of the provision of services and also representative solutions of The Court of Justice of the European Union. Also, recently adopted Directive 2014/67/EC, aimed to promote the compliance with the principle of European law is mentioned.
