EU Payroll and Employment Law

Discussion of common challenges and best practices for running payroll and employing resources in the EU. The content focuses on both the practical challenges of finding and managing payroll vendors around the region, as well as common mistakes companies make with regards to employment contracts, benefits, and country-specific gotchas.
Specifically we will run through how permanent establishment factors in to payroll and employment and why that matters, we will talk about contractors versus employees, contract best practices, the benefits framework and examples of social security in certain EU countries, nuggets of knowledge for common EU countries, and a summary of best practices for planning your international expansion or improving your existing international operations.
As the leader in international business software and services, High Street Partners helps companies expand and/or manage their international operations on a daily basis. We've advised thousands of clients on how to navigate international markets from a compliance, regulatory, and general business practice perspective. The European Union is the most common region of expansion for US businesses and so we are looking to speak to the most common interest of the group on average, as well as share insights that people may not be aware of. The EU economic zone is perceived to be one of the "friendlier" regions for which to do business by US corporations, but the pitfalls can be just as severe if not managed appropriately.

Presenting will be Ben Wright, Senior Director of Channel Development and long-time HSP advisor resource. He has advised hundreds of companies on their expansion globally, not just to EU countries.
