Posted Workers Directive (PWD)

Not every business trip requires PWD registration. Every trip requires the right assessment.

Know what applies under each EU/ EEA country Posted Workers Directive regulations before your employees travel for cross-border employer compliance.

International business travel involves much more than determining whether Posted Workers Directive (PWD) registration is required.

Every EU country has its own interpretation of the Directive, with different registration portals, exemptions, deadlines and employer obligations.

Some countries require a local representative.

Others require specific documentation.

Some have minimum salary obligations, while others apply sector-specific collective agreements.

Understanding these differences is often more challenging than completing the registration itself.

Every compliance decision begins with the right assessment

Relocare’s Compliance Decision Engine evaluates every business trip based on the destination, purpose of travel and workplace information registered by employees in the Relocare Compliance App.

Rather than simply identifying whether PWD registration is required, the platform provides country-specific compliance guidance tailored to each individual journey.

The result is not simply a “Yes” or “No”.

It is a complete compliance roadmap.

Country-specific compliance guidance

For every country, Relocare has mapped the applicable compliance requirements into structured decision flows developed by our specialists.

Depending on the destination, HR receives guidance on topics such as:

  • Posted Workers Directive registration
  • Minimum salary obligations
  • Local labour law considerations
  • Required documentation
  • Local representative requirements
  • National reporting obligations
  • Industry-specific exemptions
  • Registration deadlines

This provides HR with one complete overview before employees begin working internationally.
