FAQs

  • Quick and straightforward to administer.
  • Immediate compliance.
  • I-Contracts Limited (part of the Access Financial group) can sponsor work permits if they are needed.
  • Employment offers employment protection to the worker with more onerous obligations on the employer and the client.
  • The employed solution does away with the risk of deemed employment.

Where there is a degree of independence between the contractor and the client, then using a limited company is an attractive option for the contractor. This solution is for EU nationals or those having the right to work. An individual working through their own PSC/Limited Company may enjoy retention of approximately 65%.

A PEO or EOR enables organisations to employ staff lawfully in a country with no local entity.

As a global professional employer organisation (PEO) service provider, we enter into a joint-employment relationship with an employer by leasing employees to the employer. This arrangement allows us to share and manage many employee-related responsibilities and liabilities, such as onboarding, payroll and taxes, legal administration, employee health and retirement benefits and many more issues. At the same time, the client has day-to-day control of the employee.

Setting up a local company or branch is time-consuming and costly.

PEO is the fast, safe route to mobilising a workforce fast and leave the administration to us whose business it is.

Why choose us as your PEO service provider?

  • We have eight offices and thirty group companies worldwide and work in league with local employment law specialists, tax advisers, immigration and payroll specialists and HR firms.
  • Onboarding in as little as 48 hours.
  • We make the salary payments and invoicing on time every time.
  • We ensure total tax and employment compliance
  • We help expand your business quickly, compliantly, and cost-effectively.

You must hold a residence and work permit in order to reside and work in Sweden, if you are a citizen of a country outside the Nordic countries or the EU/EEA.

I-Contracts Limited can sponsor work permits if they are needed.
