This tool helps you attract and hire the best people from anywhere in the world, making your company more appealing to today's workers and those entering the workforce in the future.
ENABLING FLEXIBILITY
Why Work From Anywhere matters
The world of work has evolved and remote work has become an integral part of New Work. Employees want the flexibility to work from anywhere – whether it's to be closer to their family abroad or to stay longer at their holiday destination.
To be an attractive employer and to attract and retain the best talents, companies need to offer flexibility to their employees. This includes allowing employees to work from home and from anywhere in the world (“Work From Anywhere”, or WFA). As an employer, embracing remote work is key to maintaining a competitive edge in employer branding. However, working from anywhere can involve high tax, social security and immigration law risks that must be considered to avoid serious sanctions.
Our Compliance Quick Check Tool – the WFA Assistant® – is the solution!
simple, smart & secure – and recently awarded
How the WFAAssistant® works
The WFA Assistant® determines the risk of an assignment abroad based on six questions combined with master data in the user profile. Using a simple traffic light system (green = no risk; yellow = low risk; red = high risk), the proposed assignment is assessed from a tax, social security and immigration perspective.
Depending on the result, the case can be approved immediately by the tool, or after specific actions listed by the tool, or, if necessary, referred to our legal and tax experts for further assessment – simple, smart and secure.
