Work from Anywhere

The world of work is becoming ever more dynamic, and employees are increasingly demanding more flexibility. Short-term mobile working from abroad, often in combination with holidays (workation), is already common practice in many companies. In line with the shortage of skilled labour, this offer is increasingly developing in the direction of "hire anywhere": New employees and managers are hired across borders and work from abroad on a long-term or permanent basis.

A successful "Work from Anywhere" strategy also has many advantages for the company. Not only can it have a positive impact on sales growth and profit margins, it can also increase the company's attractiveness as an employer: if companies give their employees maximum autonomy, it is generally easier for them to find, retain and motivate talented employees in an increasingly difficult labour market. Long-term or permanent working from abroad in particular also reduces the time and costs involved in travelling and business premises - and has a positive impact on the carbon footprint.

In order to successfully implement working from abroad, companies have to deal with various issues, including (inter)national compliance requirements and welfare obligations, talent management, HR processes and corporate culture.

Issues that fall within the area of responsibility of the tax department also play an important role here: cross-border flexibilisation has both (labour) law and tax compliance risks, especially in the areas of wage and income tax, permanent establishment, residence and employment law* , social security law, requirements in the area of welfare obligations and data protection and security.

Regardless of whether you need support with a holistic transformation, individual sub-steps or answers to specific questions, our Work-from-Anywhere team will be happy to assist you. Here, too, it is confirmed that a "one size fits all" approach is not expedient, but that your specific business model, strategic corporate goals and corporate culture must be taken into account individually.
