Conference on post-crisis teleworking: key take-aways
Published on 30 June 2021
The conference examined legal limits on cross-border teleworking, cybersecurity and “bring your own device” policies, social security procedures and tax considerations, helping financial-sector employers prepare for the post-pandemic working environment.
Summary
At last week’s post-Covid teleworking conference, renowned local experts shared their knowledge in their field with ABBL members:
- Yves MAAS, ABBL for the introduction
- Ariane CLAVERIE, Castegnaro for labour law
- Jean-Pierre FABER, CSSF for governance and security aspects
- Jean SCHAFFNER, Allen&Overy for tax issues
- Séverine MOCA, PwC for all practical issues related to the salary aspects of teleworking
Many relevant questions were put to the experts, including:
- The possibility, from a legal point of view, to limit cross-border teleworking compared to Luxembourg-based teleworking
- Professional data and how the CSSF sees “bring your own device” policies in terms of security
- Practical step-by-step explanations of the social security procedure for implementing cross-border teleworking
The conference came a just the right time, as the situation is gradually returning to normal and the tax agreements with neighbouring countries will probably not be extended after the summer. The discussion showed that employers are thinking about solutions to preserve the work-life balance, while maintaining the highest safety standards.
