Today we’re talking about the free movement of labor in the European Union and how it can be used to undermine labour legislation in its member states, for instance by "posting" workers from one member state (e.g Romania) to another member (e.g. Belgium). This has been an important topic since the last enlargement of the European Union because of the large difference in wages and labour conditions within the EU. To talk about this, our guest is Jan Cremers, a researcher at Tilburg University and former member of the European Parliament.
