Providing fertile soil, with sharing practices and joint analysis: More than a decade of EURODETACHEMENT-projects

This short paper looks at the impact of the EURODETACHMENT project that was developed in a, sometimes, turbulent field of socioeconomic developments, with intensified mobility on the EU labour market, with a focus on the contribution to the necessary policy to detect and tackle breaches and indecent practices. The practical exchange and informal character of the initiatives have contributed to an important shift of paradigm in the thinking about mobility, free movement and free provisions of services with posted workers . Through this informal network, the partners had the opportunity not only to organise fruitful exchanges, but they could also identify pro-active and sometimes even agenda-setting ideas for a policy oriented towards fairness in labour mobility and free movement of workers.
