Events - The Rise of the Contingent Workforce – Australia Read Article
Contracting in Jamaica is not a simple task and has many on-costs for employers. Most in country tax laws do not recognise contractors per se, hence contract workers may need to be remunerated as employees, taxes withheld and paid to various city, state and federal governments, and reserve funds held for other entitlements until end of contract. Please contact CXC Global for professional advice on the specific legislation applying in the country in order to facilitate contractors and foreign nationals working in Jamaica. Forward planning is of the essence to optimize costs. Jamaica has entered into Double Taxation Treaties with other countries.
