Hire Dedicated Filipino Professionals. Fully Compliant. No Philippine Entity Required.
Team Up Now is Australia's ethical offshore staffing partner. We handle the legal employment structure in the Philippines — you get a dedicated professional working exclusively for your business.
Hiring in the Philippines is more complex than most people realise
DIY entity setup
USD 200K capital requirement, 8–16 weeks of registration across 6+ government agencies — before you can employ a single person.
Freelancer arrangements
Misclassification risk under Philippine labour law. No statutory protections for the worker. Real legal exposure for your Australian business.
Generic VA platforms
High turnover, no employment structure, no accountability. Staff shared across multiple clients and easily poached.
There's a better way.
