Worker leasing in Croatia — we stay the employer, you direct the work
Temporary agency work (Croatian: ustupanje radnika) is regulated by Articles 46–48 of the Croatian Labour Act. In this model the agency retains formal employer status — it files and pays all contributions, issues pay slips and handles residence and work-permit renewals. The user undertaking (you) directs the worker's daily tasks, provides the working environment and reports any issues to the agency.
How worker leasing works
One service agreement
You sign a service agreement with us — not an employment contract with the worker. We handle all employer obligations under Croatian law.
We handle all admin
Payroll, monthly contributions, MUP permit renewals, annual leave, sick leave — all managed by us. You receive one monthly invoice.
You direct the work
You assign tasks, set working hours within legal limits, and manage the worker on site as you would any employee — without the HR burden.
Flexible duration
Leasing contracts run per project, per season or on a rolling monthly basis. Workers can also be converted to direct employees at the end of the arrangement.
When worker leasing makes sense
✅ Seasonal demand — construction, tourism, agriculture — where you need workers for 3–9 months
✅ Project work with a defined end date — you do not want to take on long-term employer obligations
✅ Trial period — evaluate the worker's performance before offering a direct employment contract
✅ Rapid ramp-up — we can deploy workers faster because the permit is already issued in our name
