Fireside Chat: Small Business Strategies for International Team Building
How to Avoid Misclassification Fines and Uncover Hidden Global Labor Risks
Expanding globally shouldn’t mean exposing your small business to crippling legal risk, back pay claims, or audits.
If you’re wondering whether your small business can confidently hire internationally & how to do it without costly mistakes you won’t want to miss this upcoming opportunity.
Join us for a candid fireside chat with finance and operations leaders from Percent and Highline who successfully navigated the toughest compliance hurdles to scale their international teams. They’ll share their practical playbook for retaining talent and growing internationally, all without setting up complex foreign entities.
You’ll hear the honest truth about the complexity of international labor laws. Discover why non-negotiable employee protections and mandatory benefits are far stricter outside the U.S., and what you must do to stay compliant and confident.
During this candid conversation, you’ll discover:.
- Yes, you really need to pay that “13th salary”: How to build compliant compensation packages using local benchmarks that won’t break your budget.
- Skip the legal entity headache: Why smart SMBs use an EOR for their first 10 international hires instead of spending months setting up foreign entities.
- The compliance surprises no one tells you about: Real stories of Brazil’s mandatory vacation rules and UK termination laws that blindsided even veteran HR leaders
- The contractor-to-employee pipeline: Start small with international projects, then seamlessly convert top talent to compliant full-time roles before misclassification becomes an issue.
- The one thing that makes or breaks global hiring: Why integrated platforms with dedicated local experts are non-negotiable when navigating ever-changing international labor laws.
- Making 5,000 miles feel like 5 feet: Practical ways to build genuine connection with your international team members so they truly feel part of your company culture.
- And more!
