Sometimes your company may need to send staff temporarily from Finland to abroad. For instance, when you use project workers for your company in Norway, whether they are Finnish or coming from other EU countries, you should take into account various requirements. This Talks session will help you further and to avoid the most common pitfalls, especially when the project is outside EU.
This session is dedicated to presentations about Human Resources, the legislation and the taxation related to project workers and machinery or other equipment that are sent abroad for a specific period of time before returning back to Finland. You can leave questions in advance when registering to the event. We will also leave time for open discussion at the end of the webinar.
