Ticino Puts Anti-Lohndumping Initiative to the Vote – Tougher Labour Inspections Could Reshape Cross-Border Hiring

The initiative targets sectors that employ large numbers of cross-border commuters and could force companies to prepare for intensive audits, higher compliance costs and tighter documentation of posted-worker conditions.
