Also, this will give you access to most of the IT of the department, so it is good advice to do this first.

Broadly, all contracts here can be divided into true work contracts ("contratti subordinati") and contracts which formally do not constitute true employment ("contratti para-subordinati").

See each of the following subsections to find the case that applies to your trip. Note that in Italian the term "mission" describes a business trip, so that is what you will hear everyone say in this context, even when speaking English.
