Hiring in Bulgaria
One of the most cost-effective countries in the European Union for hiring, Bulgaria has become an attractive location for workforce expansion. But before expanding there, it’s important to understand Bulgaria’s business laws, regulations, and customs.
Employment relationships in Bulgaria are governed by such laws as the Labour Code, which outlines the rights and obligations of employers and employees, including contract terms, working hours, and termination procedures. Additionally, Bulgarian law regulates the use of temporary or contract workers. Fixed-term contracts are allowed for specific tasks or periods, typically not exceeding three years, and must include clear terms regarding duration and conditions.
Because of the complexity of employment laws in Bulgaria, compliant employment contracts are an essential business need. With expert guidance, you can employ workers in Bulgaria with confidence, knowing that every contract meets all legal requirements. We also provide insights on local cultural norms and hiring best practices, ensuring you stay up to date with evolving employment regulations.
Relying on an employer of record (EOR) in Bulgaria
An employer of record (EOR) provides an easier way for organizations to hire and pay local talent in Bulgaria. Because of its in-country presence, the EOR can employ the workers a company needs and lease them to that company, taking care to comply with Bulgaria’s labor laws. As a result, the organization doesn’t have to establish a legal presence or manage compliance in Bulgaria.
The EOR can hire and onboard employees in as little as two weeks and manage ongoing responsibilities such as payroll, benefits, and taxes. A full-service EOR can also manage recruitment. Together, these EOR services significantly reduce the administrative burden for an organization.
