EMPLOYEE LEASING ACT

Legally compliant employment of hostesses, promoters and students

Accounting via trade license

Since 01.04.2017, the new Employee Leasing Act has been in force. Exhibition hostesses, promoters, event personnel such as service staff must be employed as employees and socially insured.

The accounting of the personnel on trade license means in the meantime = BLACK LABOR.

As a client, you are jointly responsible for ensuring that the agency you have commissioned employs the temporary staff provided to you in a legally compliant manner and is also in possession of a permit to hire out employees. Being jointly responsible as a client means being jointly liable for the social security contributions to be paid (also retroactively) in the event of an audit by the social security authorities.

  • Your company is legally considered an employer.
  • Your company is responsible and liable for correct working hours.
  • Your company is liable for social security and payroll tax contributions.
  • As managing director / board member, you are privately liable for social security contributions not paid.
  • u. Possibly criminal liability for the offense of illegal employment.

Therefore, only hire an agency that meets both requirements. With TRUST Promotion you play it safe.
