Employment Law Webinar – Global Employer’s Guide to Cross-Border Work

The Employment Law Alliance (ELA) is offering a complimentary 90-minute webinar on Wednesday, Sept. 15. Global Employer's Guide to Cross-Border Work will address some of the issues that arise when hiring or moving employees internationally.

Overview

A panel of professionals will tackle key topics including:

• Immigration/visa requirements and work permits
• Complying with local labor and employment laws
• Whether a formal employment contract is required (or advisable)
• How to handle employee benefit plan issues (e.g. medical coverage, insurance and retirement plans)
• Individual and corporate tax issues that affect the employer and the employee, data privacy, and export controls

Sample scenarios and options for structuring these arrangements will be discussed, as well as the pros and cons of setting up subsidiaries, entering independent contractor arrangements, and using a third-party service provider to act as the employer of record.
