The biggest headache is that you need a company in the country you’re hiring in. Cannot hire a German from France. That’s really the main headache.
Even if you were allowed to do this, it would not solve 99% of the headache, which is the wildly different employment laws
Its a fair point but if at least there was a common way to register them to social insurance etc… Probably a pipe dream.
Honestly, I’m concerned that this will just lead to mega corporations with way too much influence on politics and turn Europe in an oligarchy like the US
This is just a proposal to unify company rights. It makes it easier for everyone to set up companies without the hassle of having to deal with the individual rules for companies in every independent country. That is a plus for everyone, even if your company is small. In fact, it makes expanding business activities abroad more reachable to small businesses as it does away with a lot of expensive and specific legal requirements.
But you can already have a megacorporation on the EU level, the Societas Europaea (SE). Like Airbus.
This new thing sounds more like they want to make it easier for everybody else.
i guess its a great start for a more integrated Europe in order to become something like the united states of europe. Now its important to make sure, that digital only and simplified does in no way mean a reduction of workers rights or the publics right towards information about those companies. Here is hoping its a basis that will uphold those rights at a more upper level across the median of european nations and not be situated on the lower end.
