Why offshore employees?

Why is offshoring so compelling? Consider the following ways in which global hire may appeal to a company:

Source qualified staff

There are well-recognized skill shortages in North America and Europe, especially when it comes to technology and senior management roles. Offshoring can help fill those skills gaps.

Expand into new markets

Hiring overseas is an important part of any international expansion. Staff based overseas will understand local market dynamics, regulations and compliance in a way that is not possible to understand from overseas.

Optimize time zones

Many companies benefit from having a workforce based in specific locations or time zones. This ensures that there are team members around to support customers and other team members in any part of the world, at any time.

Use multiple languages

For many international businesses, their clientele are themselves international. This means that it can be important to have staff that speak internationally important languages such as Mandarin or Spanish. Offshoring is the most straightforward way of achieving a team with these capabilities.

Resilience

Having employees in multiple overseas locations makes the business more resilient against any issues that affect some employees.

Cost-effectiveness

Offshoring to a lower cost-of-living can save global companies money.

We will request further information, such as any reasons for dismissal, to ensure that local laws relating to ending contracts are followed.

03. Send final request

We will then be in touch to confirm the dates and details for any contract termination.

Offshoring in 24 hours

Offshoring used to take weeks or months. With Horizons you can bring new employees onboard in as little as 24 hours.
