How does the concept of a “Managed Full Time Employee” work?

Due to taxation and labour legislations, international companies do not have the ability to employ fully remote South African resources. CBS Konsult provides managed employees on our payroll, contracted exclusively to your firm.

Benefits of partnering with CBS:

  • Comprehensive support: We equip your dedicated employees with everything they need to excel in their roles, including:

  • A dedicated workspace in our modern office.

  • High-speed fibre internet access.

  • Comprehensive hardware and software

  • A dynamic work environment that fosters productivity.

  • Expert oversight: Our experienced management team ensures that your employees meet deadlines and maintain high standards of quality in their work.

Your role: You provide guidance and training on specific operational software and international regulations, working closely with our expert managers to facilitate seamless integration and success.

Addressing Your Concerns:

Hesitant to commit? Here’s how CBS Konsult alleviates noted apprehensions:

  • International legislation and taxation: Our team is well-versed in IFRS and South African tax regulations. For jurisdiction-specific legislation, if required, we collaborate closely with you to provide targeted training that upskill our employees. Additionally, we mitigate risks by having a senior in-house employee conduct a final review of all work.

  • Data security: At CBS, we prioritise your data security. We comply with all relevant data protection regulations and utilise market-leading IT solutions to safeguard our environment in South Africa.

  • What if it doesn’t work? We understand your concerns, which is why we offer a three-month trial period. If you’re not satisfied with our services, you can terminate the contract within this timeframe. To ensure accountability, we conduct regular feedback sessions to monitor the performance of our outsourced staff.

Your peace of mind is our priority. Partner with CBS Konsult with Confidence.
