HR & Recruitment in Italy
When expanding a business to Italy you'll need to make a few decisions in terms of staffing: decide if you can and want to relocate existing employees, 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. The employment of staff in Italy can be affected by many extraneous factors, such as longevity of service, social charges, collective agreements, qualification and experience, etc.
Italy is a member of the European Union. Consequently, there are no restrictions on the number of national and foreign employees coming from the EU. However, labour legislation in Italy is very complicated and tends to over guarantee the employees. Temporary manpower and executive recruitment services are expanding and facilitating the labour market, but you will need to seek for local advice to navigate the law.
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.
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.
