- saasxyz 4y agoI am not expert in laws but what I understand here is that job position allows employees to work from anywhere but those employees need a work permission in US. In other words, this worldwide position is open only for US citizens. I may be wrong.
- yreg 4y agoFair enough, then I (slightly) misunderstood what your site is about.
- ItsTooMuch 4y agoThere's no need to have US work permission if you're not on the US soil.
- em-bee 4y agothe company may not want to hire a contractor but only have regular employees that just happen to be living outside of the country.
- ItsTooMuch 4y agoEven regular employment is OK. Tested that myself. It actually is better from taxation view for the employee compared to working for EU native companies - might not apply to all EU states though - but it does in my country of residence, thanks to the bilateral double taxation avoidance deal.
- em-bee 4y agohow does that work? does your remote employer pay their part of the taxes for you as employee? do they honor your local employment laws with regards to holidays, and what not? can you sue them if they violate your countries labor laws? what is the company reporting about you in their country? i'd really be curious to learn more details about the arrangement. my guess is that it looked like employment but legally it was contracting.
- ItsTooMuch 4y agoNo, your guess is wrong as I had no business license at the time and the local tax/insurance agency would come after me immediately (because nobody would've been paying my mandatory insurance). I had 25 days of vacation (standard here, 5 days over minimum). The US company had to register with the local tax agency - there is a standard procedure for this situation. Applicable labor law is based on physical location specified in contract so my local law had to be followed. You don't usually sue companies for violation of labor laws here - you go to the labor agency and complain, then they sort it out. I didn't have any problems though, so I don't know much about this.
- em-bee 4y agoin germany/austria i don't need a business license to be a sole proprietor. i just need to report my income and pay the relevant income taxes. suing was meant to be a stand in for any way to sort out complaints. how does your labor agency force a remote company to comply with your laws? in particular how would they deal with wrongful termination? maybe we are talking about the same thing, and there is just a difference of what you or me consider a contract vs employment. may i ask what is your country? the US company registering with your tax agency is interesting. that may make all the difference. i'd like to know more about that.
- ItsTooMuch 4y agoI'm in Czechia. I really don't know more about resolving complaints as I haven't had any problems. I guess at some point things would go to courts. Employment is the thing that's defined as employment by the labor law, where the employer signs an employment contract with you and then pays you salary and sorts out your taxes/insurance... Contracting is having a business licence and sending invoices to a customer - with zero relation to labor law. In particular, no concept of vacation, and you pay your own taxes and insurance.
