Answering all your questions about independent contractor agreements in Greece

You probably have questions. We’re here to answer them. Below, you’ll learn all the extra stuff you should probably know before putting together an independent contractor agreement for Greece.

Why do I need an independent contractor agreement in Greece?

Are you still on the fence about getting a contractor agreement with your hire from Greece? Don’t be! It’s a perfect way to make a blueprint of all the necessary things to start your project—for example, you can state things like paycheck amount or deadlines and schedules and make them completely clear from the beginning. When things get muddied up along the way, it’s usually because of skipping this step, and this seemingly little thing can lead to a bunch of other issues.

Contracts can also give you some legal protection if things go south. Having a contract can help you avoid tribulations and save you from having to deal with expensive legal fees or a long court process.

What do contractor agreements in Greece typically need to have?

Every contractor agreement in Greece (and, the rest of the world) can be broken up into two parts:

  • Contract-specific variables: This includes things like scope of work, rate, and deadline. They’re the project-specific variables that you’ll include with each contract, and are totally dependent on what type of work you’re hiring a contractor to do.
  • Everything else: Besides things like scope and deadline, every independent contractor agreement in Greece should follow a similar structure. If you want to grab your own contract with a compliant structure for Greece, sign up to Thera
What makes contractors different from employees in Greece?

You probably already knew that employees and contractors are different in Greece (and usually everywhere else too), but did you know how different they really are? With employees, the onboarding process could end up in a headache, especially when you do it remotely—the amount of paperwork, rules, and taxes makes it more difficult than it should be to hire abroad. So, because it’s easier and quicker (and let’s be real, much cheaper), the contractor route is becoming more and more popular in the world.

Here are a few of the key things that make contractors different from employees in Greece:

  • Contractors can set their own schedules
  • Contractors can work with their own software and tools 
  • Contractors can work for other clients 
  • Contractors rarely receive benefits, like health insurance*

Hiring contractors is the faster, cheaper, more flexible way to hire abroad. And, when you use Thera, you’re able to hire & pay with an employment-like experience—no more messy spreadsheets and manual wire transfers.

*With Thera, you can get your contractors access to sign up for premium global health insurance, from SafetyWing, at a 50% discount.
