PEO SERVICES IN BELGIUM

Our PEO Services in Belgium can help you make your expansion hassle-free and cost-effective, enabling you to start your Belgian business in days. Belgium has a free-enterprise economy, with most of the gross domestic product (GDP) generated by the service sector. The Belgian economy also is inextricably tied to that of Europe. The country has been a member of various supranational organisations, including the Belgium-Luxembourg Economic Union (BLEU), the Benelux Economic Union, and the EU.

Belgium plays a central role in Europe’s commercial and business life despite a geographical location on the continent’s north-western fringe. World-class logistics and infrastructure establish Belgium as a gateway to Europe, within 500 kilometres of 500 million inhabitants and potential consumers. Belgium offers many opportunities for international companies undertaking a Global Expansion in Europe, but also significant stress to ensuring the entity with the country’s legal structures and laws.

Ensuring compliance without sufficient knowledge of the country’s laws also adds stress to getting your new entity off the ground and ready to test new markets. Going at it without the proper support can increase the costs, time and risks involved. Each new market brings new challenges, which can be worked through more efficiently and cost-effectively with the help of a global Professional Employer Organisation (PEO) such as Bradford Jacobs.

Why choose a PEO when expanding into Belgium?

You can start doing business within days using our PEO services in Belgium. We can provide specific support for payroll, taxation, Human Resources, and compliance issues as you expand your operations and enforce your workforce.

If you are ready to start your global success with us, you can add new international Talent to your company within days. We have the connections and network to locate the best Talent that meet your needs and wishes on all levels. Without creating a Belgian subsidiary, your new employee can benefit your business in Belgium in days instead of months. We ensure your company complies with all regulations and laws, areas to which you can incur severe penalties would you fail to adhere. Your chosen candidate is hired through our agencies in Belgium and remains under your control.

How does a Professional Employer Organisation work in Belgium?

Your business is not like any other, and we get that. Your international plans require solutions that match them, your goals, and your business strategy. Therefore, our PEO services in Belgium provide a consultative approach and a tailor-made solution because we know one size does not fit all.

A PEO works with Employer of Record (EOR) agencies. Our EOR agencies in Belgium enable you to operate staff in-country without worrying about HR (Human Resources) services, tax, payroll, hiring, firing, or adapting to changes in Belgian regulations and employment laws. The EOR will take on these tasks and will be fully responsible.

When you hire us as a PEO, we agree and establish a contract between you and Bradford Jacobs. We have also agreed with your new employee in Belgium and signed an employment contract with this person. Your new workforce’s daily workflow and tasks will be under your guidance. Although we function as your employee’s legal employer, they perform duties for your business as a part of your team.

  • You want to deploy an existing employee or recruit new talent in Belgium.
  • Once the candidate is selected, Bradford Jacobs steps in as their EOR through our Belgian entity. We guarantee compliance with employment contracts, payroll, HR, tax, required visas or work permits.
  • Within a few days, your company will have an international presence in a new market, in a prime position, without the risks, hassle, or expenses of setting up your subsidiary.
  • You will control the employee daily while we manage all work-related registration formalities. Our consultants inform your employee about their holidays, benefits, and entitlements policies.
  • All approved declarations and completed timesheets are sent to us by the employee. We will invoice you, and once the payment is completed, we will deduct all contributions from the authorities and transfer the balance into the employee’s account.
