FAQsWhat you need to know about hiring contractors

With over 10 years experience and 3 offices in Mumbai, Delhi and Bengaluru, our India business now has a large number of existing candidates in our wider database. Our Contracting team focuses on filtering and screening potential talent who are interested and suited for contracting assignments to create a contracting specific talent pool. This, coupled with our extensive network and polished search methodologies, allows us to maintain a talent pool that covers the majority of the market.

Contractors add value to your business without incurring substantial risks or headcount-related costs and issues. They can be hired to cover permanent staffers’ holidays, parental leave, urgent projects, as well as an extra pair of hands during busy periods. Furthermore, they help to maintain day-to-day tasks while you recruit for a permanent role.

The base compensation for hiring contractors might look more substantial when compared to a permanent role, but there are other factors to take into consideration, such as taxes, employee benefits and insurance. Since companies are not obliged to pay contractors any of the above, it is thus a more cost effective strategy.

We offer a dedicated payroll service so that your contractors will be paid on time and accurately.

Michael Page is part of PageGroup, a global leader in recruitment with 139 offices in 37 countries. Whether you’re seeking experts for project work or professionals to cover busy periods, our specialist consultants will source the best talent. Our pool of contract talent is highly skilled and ready to start work in your business at short notice. In some cases, we can even offer same-day turnarounds. Our consultants manage the entire recruitment process, so that you can focus on the day-to-day running of your business.
