Q&A for Employees

What is a „hired-out employee”?

In other words, hired-out employees are „rented” or „leased” employees, and as such they are never employees of the client. They are always employed with an employment agency (BOSAK EMPLOYMENT) as their formal employer, while they only work at client’s premisses and according to client’s instructions. The client pays to the employment agency (BOSAK EMPLOYMENT) a monthly fee for the work provided by the „leased” employees. Hired-out employees always receive their salaries from the employment agency. The only exception provided by the legal provisions where the client is treated as formal employer of the hired-out employee is regarding health and safety at work measures.

 

Medical Care in Croatia

Every hired-out employee at BOSAK EMPLOYMENT, foreign and local, has an equal medical care as any other Croatian citizen.

In case of a need please contact the doctor.

Salary

All hired-out employees receive their monthly salaries from BOSAK EMPLOYMENT, as their employer, in accordance with job offer letters and employment agreements (and other applicable documents such as Master Employment Agreements for foreign employees coming from the Philippines). In Croatia, salaries are paid once a month into a banking account of the employee.
