Foreign workers in the EU: moving towards multiple standards, founded on unequal treatment?

Within the framework of regulating foreign workers in the European Union, the European Parliament will vote this autumn on two directives concerning seasonal workers and intra-corporate transferees.

After a comparative analysis of the texts in the legislative package on foreign workers, which includes these two directives, the AEDH is concerned about shortcomings in the texts and the possible infringement on the right to equal treatment.
