These are the topics that the gentlemen panelists will be discussing at our next Highgate Business Brunch as part of the next LIVE taping of the Highgate Talks podcast. Viewers who attend the podcast in person will be able to ask questions. Following the podcast, Peter Varga’s expert lecture will address the question of why a retailer in Eurovea couldn’t be a contractor. This will be an interesting and alternative legal perspective on the interpretation of the concept of dependent work in the context of current market needs and challenges and court case law. The programme will then be complemented by a short lecture by Peter Varga on the topic of a unique remuneration model for employees and contractors, which can ensure a reduction in turnover and an increase in the work effort of employees or contractors in companies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have been working on the issue of the scarc system for a long time. In addition to expert lectures at various professional forums for attorneys or tax advisors, we have organized a large conference focused solely on the practical nuances of this issue.
