How to hire employees in another country: employment in Finland & hiring remote talent

Written by Susanna Lindström | 7.11.2024

Expanding internationally offers businesses access to new markets and a diverse talent pool, but hiring abroad – especially in Finland – can be complex without the right support. This article explores the most straightforward, compliant, and cost-effective ways to handle employment in Finland, including solutions for hiring remote employees from Finland.

 

 

 

The Old Way: Expanding Required Setting Up a Local Entity

Traditionally, expanding into countries like Finland meant establishing a local entity, involving registration, payroll setup, and compliance with local labor laws. Employment in Finland requires adherence to strict regulatory standards, including social security and collective agreements, making expansion costly and time-intensive. This often limited international growth to larger corporations with the resources to navigate these complexities.

 

The New Way: Simplified Hiring Without Local Entities

 

Today, companies no longer need to establish costly entities in every country to hire talent. Global employment solutions allow businesses to bring on employees in Finland without navigating complex employment laws or payroll systems.
