Assignment of German Employees to Foreign Countries

In line with the contineously developing globalization of employment relationships, sending expatriates abroad becomes more and more the rule rather than the exotic exception. The necessary organizational steps and the complex legal background appear mostly intransparent and hard to manage.

All relevant legal issues with relevance to expatriates such as employment law, international tax law, social insurance law, alien law and data protection law will be outlined.

The book will take into consideration the domestic legal provisions of the involved jurisdictions as the international conventions such as double taxation agreements and international social insurance agreements.

Furthermore, the book contains checklists model agreements and practical tips.

The book takes also into account the most recent development in the relevant fields of law including the extension of the European Union towards Eastern Europe in May 2004.
