Expand into the Philippine Market with "Legal Advisory + EOR" to Avoid Employment Pitfalls
The Philippine market offers great opportunities, but its complex labor regulations require strict compliance. With the combined support of Feilong Legal and EOR services, your business can operate smoothly while staying fully compliant.
Three Key Challenges in Philippine Employment
1. Complex Regulations and Legal Risks
Philippine labor laws mandate 13th-month pay, holiday wages, and specific payroll rules. Failure to comply can lead to labor disputes and legal consequences.
2. Hidden Costs and Unpredictable Expenses
Social security contributions fluctuate annually, and employers must also cover mandatory employee funds like Pag-IBIG. Severance pay calculations can be complicated, making cost management difficult.
3. Cultural Differences and Management Difficulties
Unclear policies on leave, bonus disbursements, and employment benefits can lead to misunderstandings. Without local expertise, foreign companies may face unnecessary conflicts.
