Outsourcing and outstaffing of accounting personnel

It may not always be convenient for an organization to maintain a large staff of employees. The reasons for this can be anything - for example, for a small business it may simply be unprofitable. In such situations, it may be much easier to resort to outstaffing or outsourcing of personnel. In this case, the company does not directly hire employees, but rather “rents” them from another company. The “lessor” company is responsible for paying wages, benefits, and taxes, while the “tenant” simply receives qualified labor in the amount it needs. You can order outstaffing or outsourcing of accounting personnel from the “RosCo” company. We are committed to providing competent and experienced employees who can quickly solve any tasks assigned to them.

The difference between the two services

Both outsourcing and outstaffing are a kind of mediation in the labor sphere. In both cases, the “tenant” enterprise receives qualified employees who are competent in their field, but who are not included in the company’s staff, but, as it were, remain part of the staff. However, these concepts have differences that are important to consider.

  • 1

    Outsourcing involves “renting” personnel from another company, called an outsourcer. The tenant company literally uses the employees of another company, their knowledge, experience and skills. Typically, outsourcing is resorted to in situations where a company needs temporary support from specific specialists. For example, you can use this service to set up accounting, formulate accounting policies, or other important one-time projects. In addition, small businesses often resort to outsourcing, for which maintaining their own accounting department may not be the most rational solution. In this case, they simply “rent” an accountant for a while to solve certain problems of their company.

    Outstaffing looks a little different. It does not involve rent, but full-fledged employment of employees, which is accompanied by their complete immersion in the specifics of the enterprise. The main difference from standard hiring is that in this case the personnel are formally employed not in the company where they actually work, but in the provider company. Accordingly, all deductions - insurance, tax and others - are made by the provider company, and not by the “tenant”. The search, selection and hiring of workers is also carried out by the provider. This situation is convenient because the company can work without being distracted by issues of personnel records, proper registration of employees, and so on. This will be especially relevant for those companies that work with foreign citizens.

Advantages of outsourcing and outstaffing

The main advantage of these two services is the ability to quickly obtain competent and qualified workers, without wasting time and money on finding them and officially employing them. The payment of wages, insurance premiums, taxes and other deductions will be handled by the provider company, which as a result will allow the tenant company to reduce its personnel costs. In addition, outsourcing and outstaffing help to significantly reduce a company’s tax expenses, save on personnel management, and also significantly simplify the work of the HR department and accounting department. Another important advantage is the correct registration of foreign workers by the provider company, which avoids potential problems with the migration service.

Who can engage in outstaffing and outsourcing

The main essence of these two services is the company’s use of agency labor. However, according to Russian legislation (Article 56.1 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation), from January 1, 2016, agency work is prohibited in our country. Moreover, such a ban is essentially a legal formality. In other words, it is officially impossible to “rent out” an accountant or any other employee, but it is possible to formalize an agreement between the parties, according to which such a “rent” will be completely legal. However, there is one “but” here - the provider company must have special accreditation as a private employment agency. Otherwise, it will not be able to enter into such agreements and provide its personnel to other enterprises. The RosCo company has the necessary licenses and accreditations to outsource employees of accounting and other departments. By contacting RosCo, you get experienced, competent and properly qualified specialists from a reliable and well-established provider.

Restrictions for customers

Customers of such services may also face restrictions. For example, you can formally hire “foreign” employees only during the absence of regular specialists - for example, if they went on maternity leave or long-term sick leave or went on a business trip. Another case when, according to the law, you can resort to outsourcing or outstaffing is the performance of obviously temporary or seasonal work. For example, this could be the implementation of a one-time project limited in time, expansion of production, and so on. The maximum period for which you can conclude a contract with a “rented” specialist is 9 months, however, after this period, you can sign the next contract and extend the period of cooperation with the employee. Another limitation for customers is the number of employees hired from outside. It should not exceed ten percent of the entire staff, otherwise you will have to obtain separate consent from the union.
