Posted Workers Directive

On 21 June 2018, the Council adopted the revision of the posting of workers directive.

The aim of the revised directive is to facilitate the transnational provision of services, whilst ensuring fair competition and respect for the rights of those workers who are employed in one member state and sent to work temporarily in another by their employer (posted workers).

Croatian companies and employers have complained that the newly-agreed EU directive seeking to equalise wages for workers posted to other countries across the Union will damage their business and ultimately result in job cuts.
