{{world|date=August 2017}}'''Social dumping''' is a practice whereby [[employers]] use cheaper [[workforce|labour]] than is usually available at their site of production or sale, for example by moving production to a low-wage country or area, or employing poorly-paid [[migrant workers]]. Employers thus save money and potentially increase their [[profit (economics)|profits]]. Systemic criticism suggests that as a result, governments are tempted to enter a so-called ''social policy regime competition'' by reducing their labour and social standards to ease labour costs on enterprises and to retain business activity within their jurisdiction. There is a controversy around whether social dumping takes advantage of an [[EU directive]] on internal markets, the [[Bolkestein directive]].

==Policy issues==
A joint [[NGO]] statement on the EU [[Seasonal industry|Seasonal Migrant]] Workers' Directive also warns against social dumping. The document argues that a vague definition of seasonal work might fail to cover all types of seasonal employment taking place when the Directive exerts its otherwise-welcome protective measures on the labour market.<ref>{{cite web|title=Joint NGO Statement on EU Seasonal Migrant Workers' Directive|url=http://picum.org/picum.org/uploads/file_/EU%20Seasonal%20Migrant%20Workers%20Joint%20NGO%20Statement%2020%2004%202011.pdf|accessdate=27 August 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the conditions of entry and residence of third-country nationals for the purposes of seasonal employment|url=http://www.statewatch.org/news/2012/mar/eu-council-seasonal-workers-pres-prop-6686-12.pdf|accessdate=27 August 2012}}</ref>
[[Marianne Thyssen]], [[European Commissioner for Employment, Social Affairs, & Equal Opportunities|European Commissioner for Employment, Social Affairs, Skills and Labour Mobility]], has noted that "there is no definition of the concept of "social dumping" in EC law".<ref>[[Crown Commercial Service]] (UK), [https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/558032/20160912socialenvironmentalguidancefinal.pdf THE PUBLIC CONTRACTS REGULATIONS 2015: GUIDANCE ON SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS], footnote 6 on page 11, referring to a written answer given by the Commissioner on 14 August 2015, published 12 September 2016, accessed 28 December 2022</ref>
