Five Long-Term Contractors, and a Risk a Large Organisation Couldn't Ignore
A large French organisation had relied on five specialists in India for a long time, all engaged as contractors. For a small company that might pass unnoticed; for an organisation of its size and profile, long-term contractors doing ongoing work is precisely the arrangement that invites misclassification and permanent-establishment scrutiny, and the risk had grown too big to leave alone.
It wanted to convert the five into compliant employees, with proper benefits and security, without setting up an Indian entity to do it.
The need was to close the risk while keeping the people.
The Same Specialists, Now Compliant Employees
Wisemonk converted all five contractors into employees as their Employer of Record, so the work continued uninterrupted while the footing changed completely.
Each moved onto a compliant Indian contract, with provident fund, professional tax, income-tax deductions, gratuity, and health benefits from the first cycle, and compensation structured so the move was an upgrade. Wisemonk managed the entire transition, from new documentation to payroll, through one accountable team rated 4.8 out of 5 on G2.
The misclassification exposure the organisation had been carrying was resolved.
Risk Closed, Specialists Retained, Work Unbroken
The organisation converted all five India contractors into compliant employees, removing a misclassification risk its size made impossible to ignore.
The specialists it depended on stayed, now properly employed and more likely to remain.
With one partner for both employees and contractors, the organisation can engage India talent whichever way suits it next.
