Today’s business world is more globalised than it has ever been. With this globalisation comes the demand for remote staffing solutions, which has surged in recent years. 

When businesses execute it correctly, acquiring remote staff can reduce costs and greatly enhance operational efficiency. However, acquiring and paying remote staff often presents significant challenges. 

Businesses hiring overseas staff often need to untangle different legal frameworks, manage payroll across multiple countries, and ascertain proper compliance with local labour laws. Remote Employee, a leading business process outsourcing (BPO) company, has developed a simple billing model that addresses these issues.

The difficulties with outsourcing

The intricate process of hiring and paying remote employees can be a major hurdle for businesses attempting to outsource a role. This process involves understanding and adhering to various international labour laws, which can be daunting for companies without prior experience in global hiring. 

International law notwithstanding, managing payroll for remote employees across different countries requires specialised knowledge of local tax regulations and payment systems. This can further increase administrative burdens and potential legal risks for businesses.

Fortunately, Remote Employee offers a solution to these challenges by providing a straightforward pricing structure. Instead of dealing with multiple invoices and hidden fees, clients pay a single monthly fee per employee. This fee covers all aspects of employment, including recruitment, payroll, compliance, and support services. In doing so, Remote Employee alleviates the stress on a process that should otherwise ease the burden on a business, not worsen it.

Overcoming outsourcing complications with Remote Employee’s model

Outsourcing can be a double-edged sword for businesses. While it offers numerous benefits, it also comes with its complications. These include maintaining control over the quality of work, ensuring effective communication, and managing cultural differences.

In response to these challenges, Remote Employee’s integration model features a deep emphasis on client control and transparency. Clients can select their remote staff from a shortlist of top-tier candidates, aligning their prospects with their specific needs and company culture.

Once hired, these employees work from professional office spaces equipped with the latest technologies and connectivity solutions, offering a host of advantages beyond the standard work-from-home setup. This facility allows clients to maintain full control over their team’s processes, tasks, and key performance indicators (KPIs), similar to managing an in-house team.

Effective communication is also crucial in any outsourcing arrangement. Remote Employee facilitates this by providing advanced communication tools for real-time interaction between clients and their remote staff. With such tools, clients can provide immediate feedback, address any issues promptly, and streamline collaboration across great distances.

Streamlining costs and enhancing operational efficiency

Ultimately, however, Remote Employee’s billing model is defined by its cost savings. With most of its staff outsourced from the Philippines—where labour costs are significantly lower than in Western countries—businesses can reduce their operating expenses by up to 70%. This figure does not even include eliminating overhead costs associated with maintaining a physical workspace, such as office rent, utilities, and equipment.

In addition to saving its clients significant costs, Remote Employee offers flexibility and scalability, allowing businesses to adjust their staffing levels based on demand. Such scalability can be a godsend for startups and small businesses that may not have the resources for long-term in-house hires. 

Of course, these advantages are only possible with a solid grasp of international labour regulations. Remote Employee handles all aspects of international employment, including legal compliance, payroll management, and employee support. Clients are provided the opportunity to focus more efforts on initiatives and top-down management rather than being bogged down by technicalities.

Partnering with Remote Employee allows businesses to reap the benefits of outsourcing without the associated complications. With the demand for remote staffing growing more significant in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Remote Employee is projected to be one of the most successful international outsourcing companies available.
