INFO-POW: Assessment of the channels of information and their use in the posting of workers. Country report Italy.

This country report provides an assessment of the channels of information and their use in the posting of workers in the construction industry in Italy. It fills a gap in understanding how transnational posting and receiving companies find and use information and how that affects their compliance with posting rules and the protection of labour and social standards. The empirical data for the report were collected between December 2022 to August 2023 through mixed methodologies that comprise: a mapping of information channels provided by public and private entities; interviews with representatives of public authorities, social partners and private service providers that are responsible for the provision of information on posting; and the results of a survey of posting and receiving companies based in Italy.
