A provisional agreement has been reached to update EU social security rules for mobile workers. The aim is to ensure fair access to benefits, better cooperation between EU countries, and combat fraud. The agreement focuses on clarifying rules for unemployment, family, and long-term care benefits, while emphasizing the need for equitable burden distribution and enhanced measures to prevent abuse and social dumping. The next steps involve formal adoption by both the Parliament and the Council before the rules can take effect. The core principle is to coordinate social security systems for EU workers moving between countries while maintaining equal treatment and consideration of previous contributions.
