Deloitte Legal Webcast "Legal Update #04/2025"

Do you want to attract top talent to your business in a global competitive environment?

Regardless of whether you work with employees or service providers, the basics of staff deployment should be carefully and well organized to avoid labor and tax issues. In our webcast on March 19, 2025, we will show you which essential labor and tax parameters need to be considered when designing (cross-border) staff deployment and which options are available.

From an employment law perspective, it is particularly important to avoid violations of the German Temporary Employment Act and other relevant regulations when deploying (cross-border) personnel. The employment of (third-party) personnel abroad also presents companies with particular challenges. Moreover, since January 1, 2025, the revised “Technical Instructions on the German Temporary Employment Act” of the Federal Employment Agency have taken effect; due to the fundamentally changed official audit practice, many established models of cross-border activities are being (re-)classified as temporary employment for the first time. Finally, legal peculiarities in the direct hiring of employees abroad and the assessment of the risks of bogus self-employment must be taken into account.

From a tax perspective, companies run the risk of triggering double taxation and administrative burdens when (cross-border) deploying personnel, including additional registration and reporting obligations as well as local payroll accounting. In addition, there could be criminal consequences, such as fines and reputational damage for the company.

In our Deloitte Legal Update Webcast on March 19, 2025, to which we cordially invite you, you will learn how to avoid the risks associated with cross-border employment and how to optimize your business objectives from a legal and tax perspective.

In our webcast, we will particularly address the “employer of record” from an employment law perspective and topics such as cross-border reporting lines, permissible arrangements for foreign activities, for example in the form of matrix organizations, and compliance management from a tax perspective.

Use the webcast to discuss these topics, which are so relevant for the practice of (cross-border) personnel deployment, with our experts, Mr. Rafael Hertz (Director, Deloitte Legal, Employment & Pensions), Ms. Julia Zanon (Manager, Deloitte, Business Tax & International Tax) and Mr. Tobias Kruse (Senior Manager, Deloitte, Business Tax & International Tax).

Register now and send us your questions for the Q&A session following the presentations in advance so that we can give them appropriate consideration.

We look forward to your participation!
