Loi du 5 mars 2002 transposant la directive 96/71 du Parlement européen et du Conseil du 16 décembre 1996 concernant le détachement de travailleurs effectué dans le cadre d'une prestation de services et instaurant un régime simplifié pour la tenue de documents sociaux par les entreprises qui détachent des travailleurs en Belgique MB du 13/03/2002, page 10638

This law implements European rules regarding the posting of workers within the framework of service provision. It aims to ensure fair competition and protect workers' rights when they are sent by their employer to work temporarily in another EU member state, specifically within Belgium. Companies providing services in Belgium using posted workers must follow specific social documentation rules. This legislation introduces a simplified regime for maintaining social records to ensure compliance with labor standards while reducing administrative burdens for businesses.
