HR and Recruitment in Cyprus
When expanding a business to Cyprus you'll need to make a few decisions in terms of staffing: decide if you can and want to relocate existing employees to Cyprus, and the processes required to employ foreign nationals (indigenous to your country of expansion).
Employing Foreign Nationals
The fundamental thing to comprehend when it comes to employing indigenous workers is the law in Cyprus. Depending on your location, the employment of staff can be affected by many extraneous factors, such as longevity of service, social charges, collective agreements, qualification and experience, etc.
In some countries, employing a certain amount of indigenous workers is mandatory. In Cyprus residents and EU members are treated the same way and there are no specific laws to say what percentage of residents must be employed in a company. However if there is not a resident or EU country person suitable or available for a position a company can employ a third country national under certain circumstances. There must be certain visas and work permits accounted for when employing a person from a third country.
International Employees
Yet again, plucking talent from neighbouring countries may not come without its woes. Make sure you know the legislative restrictions and allowances of such a practice. It is relatively straightforward to employ a national from an EU country in Cyprus.
Employee Relocation
Perhaps you need someone with talent, experience and reliability. Someone you can trust. Someone with the right understanding of your business to join you overseas. And why not. But you must consider both the cost-effectiveness of such a move, and the laws that preside over it.
