Gemensamt svensk-danskt uttalande om tillämpning av artikel 17 i EG-förordning nr 1408/71 i vissa gränssituationer 1.I anslutning till färdigställande och ibruktagande inledde den svenska och danska regeringen ett samarbete för att skapa en region kring . Syftet är att det ska skapas en gemensam arbetsmarknad där man kan arbeta på den ena sidan av sundet och bo på den andra utan att regler om skatter, avgifter, förmåner och bidrag blir hinder för integration i området. 2.Ett av de problem man härvid stött på gäller socialförsäkring och arbetsgivaravgifter för finansiering av denna. De regler som gäller på området finns i EG-förordning nr 1408/71. Huvudregeln är att den enskilde ska vara försäkrad i ett land. Man är försäkrad i det land där arbetet utförs. Från detta utbetalas för- månerna och till detta ska socialavgifter betalas. Om man arbetar i två länder och är bosatt i det ena, är man försäkrad i bosättnings- landet. Reglerna gäller endast socialavgifter och har ingen inverkan på beskattningsregler. 3.Behöriga myndigheter i berörda länder kan avtala om undantag från huvudregeln för vissa personer eller vissa grupper av personer. De myndigheter som kan ingå sådana avtal är i Riksför- säkringsverket och i Den . 4.Riksförsäkringsverket och Den har kommit överens om grunder för tillämpning av reglerna. Efter ansökan i varje enskilt fall kommer tillstånd att ges för en person att omfattas av lagstiftningen i arbetsgivarens eller huvud- arbetsgivarens hemland i följande situationer: a)Personer anställda av en arbetsgivare med säte i ett land, som arbetar både en väsentlig del på arbetsplatsen hos arbetsgivaren (minst hälften av arbetstiden av ) och på distans i bosättningslandet. Dessa kriterier tillämpas också i andra situationer, där det utförs arbete i bosätt- ningslandet för samma arbetsgivare. b)Personer som är anställda för arbete i ett land av en arbetsgivare med säte i detta land, och har arvoderade förtroende- uppdrag i ett annat land. 5.Ansökan om att få omfattas av lagstiftningen i det land där (huvud)arbetsgivaren har sitt säte görs av arbetsgivaren och den anställde, som med underskrift bekräftar att de önskar ingå överenskommelsen. Det enskilda beslutet tidsbegränsas till . Möjlighet till för- längning finns så länge villkoren är uppfyllda. 6.Överenskommelsen tillämpas och tas upp för utvär- dering , 2005, eller om förutsättningarna för överens- kommelsen – häribland beskattningsregler – ändras väsentligt. – en sammanhållen politik för arbete, hållbar tillväxt och välfärd. 2.Kraftsamling för framtidens energi. 3.Karens för statsråd och statssekreterare. 4.För en god och jämlik hälsa.
