Frequently asked questions
What we get asked before a proposal.
Who is the employer?
It depends on the model. In temporary staffing it is us, with all employment liabilities on our side. In international recruitment your company hires directly, with the whole process handled by us.
Do you recruit staff without healthcare qualifications?
Yes. Care assistants, carers and support staff: cleaning, pantry and laundry. For roles that require a qualification in Portugal, we talk to you before recruiting.
Do they speak Portuguese with residents?
The language level required for each role is set with you and checked in the video interview. After arrival, we support communication between the team and your company.
What if the worker does not work out?
The replacement guarantee covers exactly that: we replace, at no additional cost.
