ESIP members adopt a set of recommendations for the digitalisation of social security coordination in Europe

ESIP Members have adopted their Recommendations on the digitalisation of social security coordination in Europe. This comes as a response to the European Commission's Communication on the matter published on the 6th of September 2023. These recommendations chart the course for European institutions to take in implementing fit-for-purpose, business-oriented, user-friendly digital tools for social security coordination. It is critical to remember that digitalisation is a means to an end, rather than the other way around.
