Hiring in Romania

Romania is an appealing country for hiring thanks to its friendly business environment, relatively low labor costs, and its support for remote work. It has a highly skilled workforce, particularly when it comes to technology. As part of the European Union, it has strong regulatory infrastructure and is located in a time zone that is strategic for many companies.

Employment relationships in Romania are governed by such laws as the Romanian Labour Code, collective labor agreements, and individual contracts. Numerous statutes and regulations established by the Romanian government work together to protect employee rights and outline employer obligations. Additionally, Romanian law regulates — and in certain cases, sets specific requirements for — the use of temporary or contract workers. Fixed-term contracts are allowed under specific conditions and must be registered with the electronic registry of employees.

Because of the complexity of employment laws in Romania, compliant employment contracts are an essential business need. With expert guidance, you can employ workers in Romania with confidence, knowing that every contract meets all legal requirements. We also provide guidance on local cultural norms and hiring best practices, ensuring you stay up to date with evolving employment regulations.

Relying on an employer of record (EOR) in Romania

An employer of record (EOR) provides an easier way for organizations to hire and pay local talent in Romania. 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 Romania’s labor laws. As a result, the organization doesn’t have to establish a legal presence or manage compliance in Romania.

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.
