Real redress, in order

1. The seasonal employer, in writing

   At signature or first payslip

   A “foreigners scale”, refused advantages, a “European” clause without a reference: request the correction in writing, quoting Regulation (EU) No 492/2011 and the official equal treatment page. Demanding the exact reference of the text invoked is often enough to bring the clause down.

2. Reporting presence, under the country's rule

   On arrival

   The official page shows, country by country, where and how to report your presence for a stay of under three months: often the town hall or the local police, with the identity document alone, through a procedure that should be free.

3. SOLVIT, if a public administration blocks

   Facing an administration

   An employment office refusing its assistance, a presence report turned into a fee or a residence file: the European Commission's SOLVIT network handles cross-border problems with public administrations of another EU country.
