DEEL GUIDE

Give every international hire a clear path to starting.

Deel supports different routes for engaging a global workforce. FlexiHire helps coordinate the work around your chosen arrangement, from internal approvals and onboarding documents to manager readiness and provider follow up, so an unfinished handoff does not disappear between teams.

START WITH THE WORK

What could hold up your next international start?

01

Is the country and worker arrangement confirmed with the right advisers?

02

Who owns outstanding documents and provider questions?

03

Are payment approvals and internal onboarding ready for the start date?

PRACTICAL GUIDE

Build a country and worker specific onboarding plan.

Start with one planned hire or contractor engagement. Confirm the approved arrangement, then map which tasks belong to your company and which belong to Deel or another provider. Track both against the intended start date.

01

Confirm the engagement route

Record the country, contracting entity and approved worker arrangement. Have the appropriate legal and provider contacts confirm the route before treating an employee, contractor or employer of record process as interchangeable.

02

Coordinate documents and approvals

Identify the required contract inputs, identity checks and internal approvals for that arrangement. Track completion in approved systems and name who answers outstanding questions without duplicating sensitive records in planning documents.

03

Prepare the payment and workplace handoffs

Confirm who approves invoices or payroll inputs, and what provider deadlines apply. In parallel, assign equipment, access and manager preparation so completing the contract does not leave the person waiting to work.

04

Keep an owner on unresolved items

Review incomplete tasks before the start date and after the first payment cycle. Escalate provider questions to a named contact and record the steps your team should improve for the next country or hire.
