Temporary assignment from a Polish company

MaViAl Sp. z o.o. documents the Polish employment and foreign-assignment terms before departure, including the U.S. location, assignment period, gross hourly rate, expected working time, travel arrangements, accommodation, insurance and reimbursement of approved business-travel expenses.

A Polish foreign-assignment document or PL/USA 1 certificate does not authorize employment in the United States. PL/USA 1 concerns social-security coverage only. Work may begin only after the correct U.S. employment authorization and the real U.S. petitioning-employer or authorized-agent arrangement have been completed.

When H-2B is used, the certified U.S. job order governs the host plant, duties, work period, wage, hours, deductions and transportation obligations. A qualifying temporary assignment expected to last no more than five years may remain under the Polish social-security system when the bilateral agreement's detached-worker conditions are met.

    Selected candidates complete host-plant, safety and authorization checks.
