Remote work: special aspects

Many employers do not care where their remote employees work. And for this reason they do not indicate in employment contracts the place of work performance or simply write “Russia” or even “the whole world”. However, there are at least 8 reasons to specify the place of work performance in the employment contract. What are these reasons, why is it dangerous for the company that the employee chooses himself in which region to work, and how should the place of work performance be specified in the contract?  This is explained by Anastasia Korotaeva, Ph.D., LL.M., senior lawyer at Juralink , in her article published in the legal journal “Labor disputes”, No. 4 (April), 2021. You can read the article here.
