Philippines Fast Facts
Hiring in the Philippines
Thanks to its high-quality education system, the strong work ethic of its people, and its growing tech and creative sectors, the Philippines is a popular country for hiring, especially for highly skilled workers. However, it’s important to under its laws and business customs.
Employment relationships in the Philippines are governed by such laws as the Labor Code of the Philippines, various statutes, and judicial precedents, as well as collective and individual contracts. The labor code encompasses numerous regulations established by the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) and other relevant agencies.
Additionally, Philippine law regulates the use of contractual workers through provisions in the Labor Code and related statutes. Employers are required to adhere to regulations regarding the hiring of contractual employees, ensuring compliance with labor standards and providing necessary benefits.
Because of the complexity of employment laws in the Philippines, compliant employment contracts are an essential business need. With Safeguard Global as your partner, you can employ workers in the Philippines with confidence, knowing that every contract for every worker meets all requirements. We can also provide you with guidance about cultural norms and hiring best practices, and keep you up-to-date with employment regulations as they change.
Relying on an employer of record (EOR) in the Philippines
An employer of record (EOR) provides an easier way for organizations to hire and pay local talent in the Philippines. Because of its in-country presence, the EOR can employ the workers a company needs and lease them to that company, taking care to comply with the Philippines’s labor laws. As a result, the organization doesn’t have to establish a legal presence or manage compliance in the Philippines.
The EOR can hire and onboard employees in as little as two weeks and manage ongoing responsibilities such as payroll, benefits, and taxes. A full-service EOR can also manage recruitment. Together, these EOR services significantly reduce the administrative burden for an organization.
