Overview
As global and Africa-based companies expand across the continent or engage remote talent across borders, labour law compliance becomes critical. Yet, with each African jurisdiction maintaining unique regulations on contracts, benefits, and employment classifications, the risks of getting it wrong are high.
From contract misalignment and employee misclassification to unmet statutory requirements, even well-intentioned companies can face serious legal and operational consequences.
This focused educational webinar will provide practical guidance for HR, legal, and operations professionals on how to identify and navigate common employment compliance risks in Africa. You’ll also gain insights into how Employer of Record (EoR) solutions can act as a safety net for compliant hiring across the region.
