“Lavoratori stranieri. Come gestire il rapporto di lavoro internazionale” (Foreign Workers. Managing Cross-Border Employment Relationships) is the new handbook authored by the Labour Team, focusing on immigration and inbound cross-border employment matters.
Presented at the Festival del Lavoro in Genoa, the volume serves as a practical and up-to-date tool designed to help professionals, companies and industry stakeholders understand and manage the many implications of international labour mobility.
The book examines the legal framework governing the recruitment, employment and management of foreign workers, including administrative procedures, contractual constraints and compliance requirements. It provides an in-depth analysis of the regulatory distinctions between EU and non-EU nationals, covering entry and residence requirements, posting modalities, and the main incentives available for specific categories of workers.
Particular attention is given to the legal instruments relevant to the management of international employment, such as transnational secondment, temporary agency work, and co-employment arrangements. The book also outlines best practices for preventing and managing employment-related disputes, including alternative dispute resolution mechanisms and the role of national and international jurisdictions.
The practical orientation of the handbook is further enhanced by the inclusion of illustrative case studies and model templates.
“Il lavoro somministrato: tutta la disciplina, i profili illeciti e le novità introdotte dal Decreto PNRR-BIS”, MAGGIOLI Editore, by Federico Manfredi, Ivan Cartocci and Chiara Romeo, is a comprehensive guide aimed at labour law and human resources management professionals. The textbook explores in detail labour administration, a form of employment that allows companies to use workers through an employment agency, combining flexibility and protection for the worker.
Organised into nine chapters, the book explores the organisational and economic advantages of administered labour, the various regulatory aspects, possible irregularities and recent legislative changes, including those of the PNRR-BIS Decree. The latter introduced new provisions to counter illegal forms of administration, such as fraudulent ones, and tightened sanctions. The book does not limit itself to theoretical analysis, but also includes a practical template of contractual models for the day-to-day management of the administration relationship.
The work discusses the role of administered labour in the European market and its impact on human resources strategies, considering its function in promoting flexibility, reducing costs and quickly adapting resources to production needs, while maintaining a fair balance between rights and economic interests.
“Il Rapporto di Lavoro Dirigenziale” authored by Federico Manfredi, edited by SEAC, is a practical and in-depth guide on the subject of managerial employment in the context of Italian labour law. It explores the regulatory and contractual specificities governing the relationship between managers and employers, highlighting the particularities of this figure that, although belonging to the world of employment relationships, maintains characteristics of high autonomy and responsibility.
The text deals with the main aspects of managerial work, starting from the attenuated nature of subordination that characterises it, up to the remuneration, trade union and legal dynamics. The figure of the general manager is analysed, with his or her tasks, rights and duties, together with the procedures for terminating the employment relationship and the specific protections linked to the termination of this contract.
Through a combination of legal analysis and practical cases, the book provides a detailed understanding of the challenges and ambiguities that characterise the managerial relationship. It is aimed at executives, entrepreneurs, lawyers and HR professionals, offering a valuable reference tool for dealing with the complexities of executive management in business.
