Most of the first-timers start expanding their international business by trying to force fit or cobble together their current HR processes and services to try to meet the needs of their international business and it never works very well. You’ll run into a lot of trouble if you don’t approach hiring and employee management in other countries correctly from the beginning.
Our guest expert is Gita Bhargava, the Co-Founder and COO of Global Upside Corporation, a Safeguard Global company pushing the edge of what’s possible in the fields of international expansion, staffing, human resources, accounting, payroll, and HR technology. Gita has nearly 20 years of experience in management, accounting, and finance operations for both public and private companies across a wide variety of industries. Since adolescence Gita has proven an unrelenting entrepreneur, breaking various glass ceilings. Her lifetime of success in the face of obstacles is due to her belief in the power of positive thinking.
While it is no surprise that companies are expanding globally much sooner, this has put a lot of strain on the HR workforce, as different countries have vastly different rules and compliance requirements and costs associated.
After working with hundreds of companies, Gita shares her expertise on how to effectively work through some of the top challenges faced such as:
- Understanding how employment works in the US versus outside the US
- Legal compliance cor HR
- Social taxes and benefit entitlements – requirements and costs
- Global payroll view for all employees
- Data privacy law
Listen to the podcast to learn more about how to quickly and securely navigate the HR challenges when expanding your business internationally.
