International Social Security – the new EC Regulations

Jim Yuill specialises in worldwide social security matters with particular emphasis on contributions. He splits his time between lecturing and writing on a wide variety of social security matters and advising companies on how to minimise their contribution liabilities whilst complying with legislative requirements.

Jim spent over 20 years in the UK Department of Social Security where as a senior official he helped shape the National Insurance contribution system. More recently he spent 14 years as Director of Social Security Services with one of the Big 4 accountancy firms.
Jim now runs his own social security consultancy business from his home in Fife. In addition to advising a number of multi national companies he is retained by several accountancy firms as their consultant and deals with the more complex social security related matters including international postings, aircrew, mariners and oil and gas related employments.

The revised EU social security rules for employees working outside their home country are causing difficulties for many employers.

• When can an employee remain in the home country scheme and for how long?
• What happens if the employee works in more than one country?
• What certificates are issued and how are they obtained?
• What record keeping is necessary?

These and many other questions will be answered by Jim Yuill in his presentation on 19 October.
