Declared Work Benefits All campaign

The Declared Work Benefits All campaign is raising awareness of the benefits of declared work among employers and employees as well as informing decision-makers about the importance of preventing undeclared work. Authorities together with organisations are on board with this EU-wide campaign. #DeclaredWorkBenefitsAll is primarily visible on social media.

Declared work – fair play

Every one of us deserves fair terms of employment and working conditions. Discrimination and taking advantage of someone else’s weaker position are not fair work. The most serious forms of undeclared work involve blatant underpayment or putting the employee in a very unfair position, such as by taking advantage of his/her financial distress or dependence on the employer.

Declare income – everyone benefits

We must all do our part to prevent undeclared work. Payments for undeclared work are generally made in cash and not reported to the Incomes Register. Declared work guarantees the right to social security, appropriate pay, working hours and occupational safety.

Companies that use undeclared labour gain an unjustified competitive advantage on other companies in their business through cheaper labour costs. Properly declared work builds shared security and funds public services.
