Recent Development
Pursuant to the General Letter ("General
Letter") of the Social Security Institution
("SSI") dated 2 June 2021 and numbered
E-99779835-202.99-25647141, new requirements have been introduced
for employers regarding their employees who work remotely.
What Does the General Letter Regulate?
Pursuant to the General Letter, new sections have been added to
the monthly premium and service documents/withholding tax return
and premium service declarations with respect to remote working.
The SSI requires employers to declare the number of remote working
days of each of their employees, each month, by completing these
new sections.
Non-compliance with the obligation to declare the number of
remote working days might result in administrative fines for
employers.
