As a consultant, you may be called upon to work on international assignments. Wage portage allows you to secure your assignment, even abroad. We have more than 20 years’ experience in providing support to consultants all over the world to facilitate their secondment or expatriation.
International contractor services
Our Swiss subsidiary: Sage SA
AD’Missions has a subsidiary in Switzerland that allows consultants to benefit from tailor-made support throughout their assignment. Part of the Freelance.com group of companies, Sage SA was founded in 1989 and specialises in consulting and salary engineering for experts on assignment abroad. International contractor services work in the same say as French wage portage but allow expatriates to choose health cover “à la carte”.
How international contractor services work.
International contractor services convert the tripartite relation between the consultant, the end client and the portage salarial company. They allow consultants to carry out assignments and free themselves from administrative constraints.
First of all, you sign a service agreement with your client to define the terms of your intervention as well as your remuneration. Then we draw up an employment contract with you to begin your assignment. You enjoy the status of employee as well as all the related advantages. We take care of invoicing, payment reminders, payslips and we pay you a salary. If you live in France and carry out an assignment abroad for less than three months, you will remain subject to the French legislation regarding social protection (unemployment insurance, social security, retirement, etc.). But, if your mission is not temporary, you become an expatriate consultant with the obligation to join the social protection system of your host country.
Our subsidiary Sage SA will help you examine all the options open to you, depending on your situation, to enable you to carry out your mission under the best conditions.
The advantages of international contractor services
For the consultant
Contractor services are suitable for all types of assignments abroad. This status allows the consultant to benefit from all the advantages of French employee status: unemployment insurance, provident insurance, top-up health insurance, professional civil liability, … with complete administrative management and a payslip at the end of the month.
By contacting our experts in Switzerland, you will have advisors capable of guiding you on legal and tax matters. The key concept: adaptability! The status of international contractor allows you to choose social coverage “à la carte” to suit your needs: health insurance, unemployment insurance, retirement fund, top-up health coverage, providence, civil liability insurance, etc.
