Outstaffing means taking personnel off your payroll: employees keep working on your project and under your management, but they are legally employed by a provider that handles HR administration, payroll and reporting.
How outstaffing differs from outsourcing
The two services are often confused, though the difference is fundamental:
- Outstaffing — you manage the people yourself, while the provider is responsible for employment and HR administration.
- Outsourcing — an entire function is handed to the provider (for example, support work), and the provider manages the team and is accountable for the result.
Put simply: outstaffing is "your tasks, our paperwork," outsourcing is "our team, our result."
Who benefits from outstaffing
- Project-based companies with peaks in workload: headcount can be scaled up and down flexibly to match volumes, without expanding the permanent staff.
- Foreign companies entering the Kazakhstan market: they can start operating with a team before building their own HR structure.
- Companies with a headcount cap that need extra hands without changing the staffing schedule.
- Businesses that want to relieve HR and accounting of administering part of the workforce.
