1. Definition of posted worker
In accordance with the law, a 'posted worker' means a worker who usually works in the territory of one Member State and is temporarily posted to the Republic of Cyprus, in accordance with the provisions of local law, to perform their work for a limited period of time.
In accordance with the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Communities, the temporary nature of an activity carried out on the territory of a Member State in the context of free provision of services cannot be determined abstractly but should be judged on a case-by-case basis, depending on the duration, frequency and periodicity or continuity.
It should be noted that in Cyprus, if an occupational activity can no longer be considered as being exercised temporarily according to the above-mentioned criteria, but is instead stable and continuous, then all the binding rules and regulations that are in force in Cyprus apply.
