In a globalizing world, national borders are frequently crossed.
Moreover, flexibility is a key skill in the knowledge economy of
the 21st century. Accordingly, an increasing number of workers can
be labelled as 'highly mobile', which are persons that combine
various forms of work (on-call contracts, employment agency work,
platform-work, teleworking etc.) that are carried out in several
countries. This book provides an in-depth analysis of a current and
pressing problem for an increasing group of working people, whose
social (security) protection is unclear or even non-existent. The
main rule of EU social security law prescribes that the law of the
Member State where the person works applies. When there are several
work countries involved, the multi-activity rule of Article 13 of
Regulation 883/2004 is to be applied. According to this conflict
rule, the applicable social security legislation is to be
determined by the place of work or the place of residence. Which of
these two connecting factors is decisive in situations of high
mobility? The rather simple question of where is the highly mobile
worker socially insured may become a difficult one. The
consequences for highly mobile workers and their employers are that
social rights and obligations are not only sometimes difficult to
determine, one could also question whether the applicable
legislation as determined by the conflict rules of Regulation
883/2004 is appropriate for a certain highly mobile situations.
While some problems are more of a technical-legal nature, others
rather stem from procedural and administrative issues. How could
these problems be addressed by EU social security law? With many
forms of flexible work and work activities increasingly being
performed in several Member States, it seems more important than
ever to map out mobility-related issues that highly mobile workers
may encounter and to explore possible routes towards more legal
certainty regarding their social security protection. That is
exactly what the research presented in this book aims to attain.
