Learning Objectives

  • Explain the purpose of A1 certificates in EEA assignments.
  • Identify payroll impacts of bilateral Social Security Agreements.
  • Analyze coverage obligations in Rest of World assignments.
  • Discuss the relevance of the Posted Workers Directive.
  • Differentiate local law implications for expatriate employment.

Course Overview

Managing payroll for expatriate employees raises complex questions: Who pays social insurance? Which country’s laws apply? How do you ensure compliance when an employee works across borders?

This CE course continues where our first shadow payroll course left off—diving into the deeper layers of international payroll and legal frameworks affecting globally mobile employees. As Part 2 on this topic, we’ll explore critical considerations such as social insurance liabilities under the European Economic Area (EEA) rules, the role of A1 certificates, and the impact of bilateral social security agreements. For assignments in countries outside these arrangements, we’ll break down the obligations and risk areas under Rest of World provisions. The course also covers the EU Posted Workers Directive and highlights how local employment laws can shape payroll duties and benefits obligations.

Major Topics:

  • EEA Certificate Compliance Steps
  • Bilateral Payroll Coverage Rules
  • Rest of World Guidance
  • Posted Workers Directive Essentials
  • Local Law Payroll Effects

Whether you oversee global mobility, work in payroll operations, or support international HR, this CE course delivers the tools to stay compliant and efficient. Join us to strengthen your expertise in handling expat payroll with precision.
