The European Commission is promising to deliver a reform package next year as campaigners seek to limit the ability of construction companies to abuse what is currently allowed under EU subcontracting law.

Subcontracting is a way to skip around labor laws. It should be banned or regulated more heavily.

To answer the title, no. Migrant and worker exploitation were rampant before EU and regulations. They lessened the harm and can lessen it further, but won't be able to completely remove it without frequent checks and draconian control over both the governments and the companies that are under its influence.
