Remote work is allowing companies to hire workers amidst ongoing talent shortages across industries. As a result, tapping geographically dispersed talent pools is becoming increasingly important to fill skills gaps. However, expanding a contingent workforce globally can be complex, and organisations need to consider various factors to be successful.
1. Consider Compliance Regulations
Every nation and territory around the world has unique employment laws and regulations. For instance, there is legislation surrounding technology hosting in China and the E.U., data privacy regulations such as the General Data Protection (GDPR) in the European Union, and various others. Organisations looking to design a compliant, global program must keep these in mind, or face serious repercussions which can include lawsuits, fees, or even a tainted company reputation.
