Convert your Filipino contractors to compliant employees
Reduce employment ambiguity and protect your business, while keeping the people you already trust.
Direct contractors look cheap — until they don't.
Engaging Filipino contractors directly leaves your business exposed across three fronts. Conversion closes all three in one move.
Sham-contracting exposure
Pascua v Doessel Group (2024) confirmed Fair Work can reach offshore arrangements. Long-term, full-time contractors look like employees.
No statutory protection
No SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG or 13th-month pay means your people are unprotected — and resentment grows the longer it runs.
Retention and IP risk
Contractors leave faster, often without notice, and IP assignment is murky. One bad exit can cost more than years of 'savings'.
Same people. Cleaner structure.
