SUMMARY:DMD Special: Remote working across borders: The hidden risks businesses need to understand
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nAs businesses continue to embrace flexible and remote working\, many organisations are unknowingly exposing themselves to tax\, payroll\, regulatory and operational risks when employees work from different jurisdictions. \nWith the summer period approaching\, many UAE-based employees may temporarily relocate overseas\, extend travel while working remotely\, or request international remote working arrangements. At the same time\, employers are increasingly approving these requests without fully understanding the wider business implications. \nThis practical and commercially focused session will explore the key considerations businesses and employees should assess before remote working arrangements are approved\, helping organisations prevent costly issues before they arise. \nWhat the session will cover\nTopics expected to include: \n\nCross-border tax exposure\nPermanent establishment (PE) considerations\nPayroll and regulatory implications\nEmployee residency considerations\nHR governance\, policy and approval structures\nBusiness risk management considerations\n\nRather than focusing purely on technical detail\, the session will provide practical insight and real-world guidance for organisations navigating international remote working arrangements. \nWho should attend?\nThis session is designed for: \n\nBusiness owners approving remote working arrangements\nHR teams implementing remote work policies\nFinance and payroll teams managing cross-border employees\nEmployees working remotely from other jurisdictions\nLeadership teams balancing operational flexibility with compliance risk\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nRegister Now\n[/vc_column_text]\n\n                \n                        \n							"*" indicates required fields \n                         \n \n                        NameThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Name*\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Email*\n                                \n                                    \n                                    Enter Email\n                                \n                                \n                                    \n                                    Confirm Email\n                                \n                                \n                            I am a*\n								\n								Chartered Accountant Member\n							\n								\n								Chartered Accountant student/trainee\n							\n								\n								OYW Ambassador\n							\n								\n								None of the above\n							Select Your Chartered Accountancy Institute*Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CA ANZ)Chartered Accountants Ireland (CAI)Chartered Institute of Accountants in Malawi (ICAM)Institute of Indonesia Chartered Accountants (IAI)Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants (ISCA)The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW)The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Bangladesh (ICAB)The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI)The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Namibia (CA Namibia)The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan (ICAP)The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland (ICAS)The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Sri Lanka (CA Sri Lanka)The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Zimbabwe (ICAZ)The South African Institute of Chartered Accountants (SAICA)Zambia Institute of Chartered Accountants (ZICA)OtherOther - Please name your institute*Privacy Policy*\n								\n								I accept that the data I provide is used according to Chartered Accountants Worldwide Privacy Policy\n							Newsletter\n								\n								I would like to receive the Chartered Accountants Worldwide email newsletter.\n							\n          \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n        \n                        \n                        \n[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nMeet the Speakers\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”436364″ img_size=”full” style=”vc_box_circle” css=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_column_text css=””] \nCarla Wilson \nPresenter\nBusiness Transformation Partner | Global Financial Strategist | Fractional Advisor & Execution Partner | Growth Enabler \nCarla Wilson CA(SA)\, ACA is the Chairperson of the Chartered Accountants Worldwide UAE Committee\, Co-Chair of the SAICA GCC Committee\, and Co-Founder & CEO of WE Accounting & Advisory.
