What is the Digital Work Card?

It is the digital version of the physical work card, that “little blue book” carried by every worker. 

This document is mandatory for all employees who work under a formal contract, that is, under a CLT contract.

THE Work Permit has many functions, among which we can highlight:

• Prove professional experience;
• Store data about the worker's working life;
• Ensure he has access to labor rights.
