The Department of Labour and Social Security has formalized its constraints on the posting of workers from all foreign countries by setting up an on-line portal. Employers posting workers on assignment into Italy (including from EEA member states) must now notify the authorities by midnight on the day before the assignment is due to begin. They must also report any subsequent modifications to details within five days of the change and keep documentation for two years after the end of the foreign assignment. In addition to reporting new secondments, employers must do so for any existing employees seconded since July 22nd 2016. The data must include the Work Permit Authorization number, if applicable and all submissions will be shared with the Labour Inspectorate, National Social Security Agency, and National Workers Compensation Authority.
