Description
Across the EU, around 1.9 million people commute across borders for work, illustrating both the scale and strategic importance of cross-border labour mobility. Differences in regulations, skills recognition, taxation, and social protection systems continue to create obstacles for both workers and employers. In a context of growing labour shortages and mounting demographic and economic pressures, improving cross-border labour market integration is increasingly critical to sustaining productivity and economic development. The session will provide concrete insights and strengthen the foundation for designing more effective and coordinated approaches to cross-border labour market integration.
