Notas do Editor

  1. Employment terms/benefits may depend on location.Without an entity, employee roles need to be clearly defined in contracts to avoid PE risk.France: May end up paying above market rates for additional, mandatory benefits (think CBAs)U.K.: As a result of direct debit requirementAnother issue- obtaining credit for basic equipment (cellphones, IT, leases, etc.) may be difficult with NRE
  2. Largely a finance and tax matter, but will impact how benefits are sourced and administered.Ideal world: Structure options should be decided long before the hiring process starts.
  3. Keep an open mind and be ready to modify your processes. Expect the unexpected.
  4. Though very effective in the U.S, the standard American offer letter is generally not allowed outside of the U.S. PAY:Good to state this is GROSS. Currency choices that are not local can lead to issues exchange rate is not addressed in a contract.PTO: PTO requirements vary by country. Additionally, individual countries may not permit PTO as a catchall for all time off, with vacation, sick and personal time requiring different allowances, rates of pay and carryover rules.STOCK OPTIONS:Certain countries have rules surrounding issuance of stock options that can subject your employees to major tax consequences. AT WILL CLAUSE: Doesn’t exist outside of U.S.; contract needed.
