When you’re operating across borders and employing an international workforce, you need careful planning and scrutiny to ensure every single entity is both fully compliant with your global HR and payroll policies and procedures, and more importantly with local regulation requirements. Ignore this and you’ll risk fines and reputational damage - sometimes even criminal prosecution.
Our HR and payroll specialists can oversee the proper implementation of all procedures and can assist your employees and their families to obtain the required visas, work and residence permits. They will also guide you when the involvement of additional specialists is required and remain your first point of contact.
