They work for you · employed by the agency
Outstaffing at GlobalStaff means the specialist works in your company and reports to your managers, while our agency is the official employer in Ukraine. We sign the employment contract, keep the HR records, calculate and pay the salary, pay the income taxes and handle the dismissal. You pay the agency for the service under one contract.
What outstaffing includes
The agency takes on all of the employer's work related to documents and money:
- employing staff on the agency's payroll and their dismissal;
- keeping the HR records;
- calculating and paying salaries;
- paying income taxes on the employees' earnings;
- providing for the staff's material needs;
- certificates and permits for foreign employees.
If you do not have the people yet, we can find them: staff recruitment is a separate service, and after the start the employee moves to outstaffing.

- you need fewer employees on your own official payroll;
- you want to take HR paperwork and payroll off your accounting and HR team;
- you need people for a project or a season, after which your headcount returns to its usual size;
- a foreign specialist joins the team and work permits are needed;
- you need a specialist for a project, for example a Node.js developer, without putting them on your own staff.
Outstaffing, staff leasing and outsourcing: the difference
| Model | How it works |
|---|---|
| Outstaffing | people work for you and are employed by the agency; you manage their work |
| Staff leasing | a term often used for the temporary provision of workers by an agency for the length of a project; you manage their work |
| Staff augmentation | a term international IT companies use for adding outside specialists to their team; with GlobalStaff it is arranged as outstaffing |
| HR outsourcing | you hand over a function to the contractor: HR records, recruitment, employment paperwork; the contractor delivers the result |
What Ukrainian law says
The word "outstaffing" does not appear in Ukrainian legislation. The model falls under Article 39 of the Law of Ukraine "On Employment of the Population": hiring employees to perform work for another employer. The Tax Code of Ukraine (clause 14.1.183) defines a "service of providing personnel". We agree the wording of the contract and the payment scheme with your accountant and lawyer before signing.

Frequently asked questions
Who is the employer under outstaffing?
GlobalStaff. The employee signs the employment contract with the agency; the agency keeps the HR documents, calculates and pays the salary and pays the income taxes. Tasks, the workplace and day-to-day management stay with your company.
Can our current employees move to outstaffing?
Yes. People keep working in the same place with the same duties and are formally employed by the agency. If you do not have the person yet, we recruit them first.
What is the difference between outstaffing and outsourcing?
With outstaffing you manage the people's work, and the agency is responsible for their employment, salary and HR paperwork. With outsourcing you hand over a whole function, for example HR administration, and receive the result.
Can you employ a foreign specialist?
Yes. Outstaffing makes it easier to employ foreign staff: as the employer, the agency prepares the required certificates and permits.
How much does outstaffing cost?
We calculate the price after the brief: it depends on the number of employees, their salaries and the amount of HR work. You receive the calculation before you sign the contract.
Our company is outside Ukraine. Can we use outstaffing?
Tell us in the brief where your company is registered, how many people you need and in which roles. We check the contract and payment scheme with your accountant and lawyer before quoting, so you know the set-up before anything is signed.
