Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book sheds an innovating light on a topic of major scientific as well as practical interest that has seldom been dealt with in a comprehensive way: the relations between EU and non-EU countries and nationals, as far as social security is concerned. These are dealt with in a number of contributions by eminent international experts." "First, the internal co-ordination of the European Union in relation with third country nationals is analysed. The ways the social security systems of the EU Member States are being co-ordinated with those of the Mediterranean emigration countries are examined in a second contribution. The EU-EFTA social security arrangements are explored in a third one. An overview of the complex landscape of the existing bilateral and multilateral social security instruments binding EU states and non-EU states is given in a next one. A fifth contribution deals with the European and international law applicable to the social security of illegal foreign workers." "The contributions were presented at a conference held on 2 April 2009 in Leuven, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Master of European Social Security." --Book Jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The social security of the European Union (EU) has become of vital significance for persons living or working in a EU Member State. The creation of the European Economic Area and near accession of the candidate Members (East European countries) has further increased the relevance of this law. This book describes EU social security law, beginning with the rules relevant to migrant workers. Coverage includes Regulations 1408/71 and 574/72 and the case law of the Court of Justice of the EC. The book analyses the contributions of these judgments to the developments of coordination law and to the realisation of the objective of free movement of workers. In this respect the relation of the Regulation and the EC Treaty, which is shown in for instance the Kohll and Decker judgments, is analysed. Special attention is paid to the Proposal for Simplification and Modernisation of Regulation 1408/71. A second main part of EU social security law is the law on equal treatment of men and women. The Court of Justice issued several main decisions, of which the Barber judgment is a wellknown example. Since then, the case law has been further developed and this book helps the reader to understand the present state of affairs. A separate chapter analyses the combat against social exclusion of the EU and the instruments developed for this purpose. This is the completely revised and updated fourth edition of an authoritative book.

Download or read book Coordination of Social Security Schemes Between the European Union and Euromed Countries written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Union (EU) has issued a series of laws (Directives) on the subject of social security and the equal treatment of EU citizens and third-country nationals. Regulations 859/2003 and 1231/2010, which extend Regulations 1408/71 and 883/04 to thirdcountry nationals, have also been adopted. Mediterranean (MED) country nationals in European territory are therefore protected, but without taking the career path of those citizens in their country of origin into account. As a result, to give the right to a retirement pension in a Member State that requires 15 years of contribution periods, for example, the person concerned can add together all the periods paid in European countries. However, any insurance periods that the worker has paid in their own country will not be taken into account. There is no EU rule allowing those periods to be aggregated or added together. The way in which EU social security policy in relation to third-country nationals has been developed is closed and inward-looking, with a distinct lack of reciprocity, bilateralism and mutual recognition. It has never officially negotiated with third countries. The EU may recognise certain rights held by the citizens of MED countries, but those countries have no reason to recognise the same rights for European citizens working there. This study cites several examples of this, which demonstrate the shortcomings that exist and the continuing lack of protection, not only for third-country nationals in Europe, but also for European citizens who work in the MED region. Businesses can also experience significant economic disadvantages that limit their competitiveness.

Download or read book Free Movement Social Security and Gender in the EU written by Vicki Paskalia and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-07-31 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work examines the system of co-ordination of national social security laws in the European Union from a gender perspective. The central question that it raises concerns the level of social security protection enjoyed by women moving throughout the Union in cases of work interruption or marriage dissolution. Women's social security protection has traditionally been based on two criteria, namely economic activity and family/marriage. Work interruptions, in particular for child-rearing, challenge the invocation of economic activity as an effective basis for social security rights. Changing social and family conditions, including the emergence of atypical relationships and increasing divorce rates, challenge the criterion of family/marriage. Efforts have been made within the framework of the national systems of the Member States to address these challenges, often unsuccessfully. So, how successful has the European system of co-ordination, the aim of which is to provide a sufficient level of protection to migrant workers and their families, been in addressing these challenges? The book contains comprehensive discussion of the phenomenon and legal institution of social security, as well as a thorough analysis of the current state of European Community law concerning co-ordination, with a particular focus on gender. It identifies several problematic areas where solutions must be worked out and action taken. The book fills a gap in the legal literature on the social security field and will appeal to those with an interest in social security, including academics, policy-makers and practitioners.

Download or read book Boundaries of European Social Citizenship written by Anna Amelina and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection contributes to studies of intra-EU migration and mobility, welfare, and European social citizenship by focusing on transnational labour movements from new to the old EU member states (Hungary–Austria, Bulgaria–Germany, Poland–UK and Estonia–Sweden). The volume provides a comparative analysis of formal organization and mobile individuals’ use of European social security coordination, which involves mobile Europeans' access to and portability of social security rights from the sending to the receiving country (and back). The book discloses the selectivity criteria of welfare provision in four areas (unemployment, family benefits, health insurance, and pensions) that lay at heart of European cross-border social security governance. It also identifies specific discourses of belonging (gendered, ethnicized/racialized and class-related images of ‘Us’ and ‘Them’) that frame the institutional selectivity by constructing images of mobile EUcitizens' ‘deserving’ or ‘non-deserving’ social membership. The collection offers a detailed examination of inequality experiences mobile EU citizens from the new EU countries encounter while accessing and porting social security rights across borders. It will be of interest to a wide range of social science and interdisciplinary researchers, students, and practitioners as well as those interested in intra-EU migration and mobility, social security, European social citizenship, and transnational studies.
Download or read book Towards a Common EU Approach on Social Security Coordination With Third Countries written by Pauline Melin and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social security coordination for third country migrants coming from third countries to the EU is scattered between EU instruments and national instruments. On the one hand, the EU has concluded agreements with third countries, e.g. Turkey, which includes provisions on social security coordination. The EU has also adopted unilateral measures such as EU Directives on migration, e.g. the Blue Card Directive, which provide for equal treatment in the field of social security. On the other hand, Member States conclude bilateral agreements on social security coordination with third countries. With the purpose of solving this fragmented situation, this paper aims at discussing what a common EU approach to social security coordination with third countries could encompass. It focuses on the social security coordination to be developed with India by using a comparative legal analysis of the EU instruments as well as the Member States' bilateral agreements with India.
Download or read book The External Dimension of EU Social Security Coordination written by Pauline Melin and published by Brill Nijhoff. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The External Dimension of EU Social Security Coordination: Towards a Common EU Approach, Pauline Melin provides a detailed legal analysis of the framework on social security coordination with third countries and offers alternative policy solutions to the current fragmented approach. The analysis comprises a complete overview of the EU approach to social security coordination with third countries, 9 bilateral agreements (between Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands, with respectively India, Turkey, and USA) and international standards. Based on this analysis, the author explores the possibility from an institutional perspective to develop a common EU approach through the conclusion of EU agreements. The author concludes by favouring an alternative softer solution through an EU model agreement and proposes that the content of that model agreement be based on the best practices of the current framework.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the paradox of rich countries of Western Europe, who have high levels of poverty whilst proclaiming its eradication as one of the primary social and economic goals. It looks at how policies often do not achieve their goals, why countries need mechanisms to reduce wage inequality and why they choose to provide universal benefits instead of systems of selective benefits targeted at the poor. Along with cross-countries comparisons, the volume also presents analysis of the minimum income in France, Portugal, Italy, Finland, Ireland, Belgium, and Greece.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study summarises the information provided by the Member States in their annual voluntary reports on their experience and progress concerning cooperation on fraud and error in the reference year 2018, as provided for in Decision H5 of the Administrative Commission for the Coordination of Social Security Systems. The Member States' reports have been analysed with the aim of identifying several elements. First, particular attention goes to the steps taken throughout the year to prevent and combat fraud and error in the field of EU social security coordination. Secondly, the aim of the country reports was to identify specific problems in implementing the EU coordination rules which may lead to, at least risks of, fraud and error. Thirdly, an outline is provided of the steps taken to promote compliance by institutions and healthcare providers with the coordination rules and to provide information to citizens, in the field of benefits in kind. Fourthly, the report notes good practices, lessons learned and remaining issues or concerns when dealing with cross-border cooperation and information exchange within the framework of Regulations (EC) No 883/2004 and (EC) No 987/2009 on the coordination of social security systems (hereafter "the coordination Regulations"). Fifthly, the report summarises the examples of or proposals or suggestions for measures to improve the overall tackling of fraud and error in the field of social security coordination which National Contact Points (NCPs) can operationalise without the need for changes to national or EU law. Also some additional remarks, made by a few Member States, are inserted at the end of this report.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study summarises the information provided by Member States in their annual voluntary reports on their experiences and progress concerning cooperation on fraud and error, as provided for in Decision H5 of the Administrative Commission for the Coordination of Social Security Systems. The Member States' reports have been analysed with the aim of identifying several elements. First, particular attention goes to the definition of fraud and error in the field of social security coordination in the respective Member States. Secondly, the aim of the country reports was to determine the prevalence of fraud and error as two conceptually distinct phenomena in the Member States concerned. Next, insight was sought into the remaining issues associated to the implementation of the European coordination provisions, as a result of which fraud and error may arise, and the steps taken in this respect to prevent and combat fraud and error. Lastly, an overview was requested of the measures taken both internally and externally by means of bilateral agreements with other Member States, in handling fraud and error, as well as data protection concerns associated thereto. The report at hand provides an overview of these findings, allowing several conclusions to be drawn concerning fraud and error in the Member States in the past year.
