Belgium Expands Mandatory Construction Site Exit Records to Combat Social Fraud

Belgium will require exit records for all large construction sites beginning April first. Announcement comes from Minister Rob Beenders, responsible for tackling social fraud nationally.

The new rule covers sites valued above five hundred thousand euros across Belgium.

Current entry registration expands to include departures, enhancing safety and workforce supervision. Real-time records will help in emergencies, ensuring everyone’s presence is always known.

Employers remain responsible for registration, with digital options provided by Social Security Institute. Minister Beenders suggests future adoption for other sectors, funding permitted, enhancing oversight further.
