The EU Posted Workers Directive requires that posted workers receive terms and conditions of employment at least as favorable as those applied to local workers in the host country. In Italy, this means alignment with the applicable collective agreement (CCNL—Contratto Collettivo Nazionale di Lavoro) for the sector and role. The comparison covers minimum wage, working hours, rest periods, leave, and other mandatory terms. Remuneration must be "equivalent" to what a local worker in the same role would receive.

We help you identify the correct CCNL for your sector, map the worker's role to the appropriate level (livello), and ensure that the contract and payslips reflect equivalent remuneration. This includes base salary, allowances (e.g. for travel, cost of living), and any other elements that form part of the mandatory minimum. We also advise on contract drafting and amendments to ensure labor law compliance. Proper contract management and remuneration documentation protect you during labor inspections and reduce the risk of sanctions.
