Outsourcing Your Team: A Cost-Effective Business Solution

Written by Our Pacific Office | Dec 3, 2021 2:00:00 PM

Most businesses need people to run. However, team members can also represent a large part of many companies’ budgets. If you don’t hire enough people, team members can become overworked and unable to complete necessary tasks. If you don’t pay people a high enough salary, they may slack off and leave your business for new opportunities. 

Outsourcing solves this problem by allowing your business to access quality candidates at cheaper costs. This article will demonstrate why outsourcing to Fiji can be a cost-effective recruitment solution for businesses. 

 

The Fijian Cost of Living is Significantly Lower than Australia

  

The cost of living in Fiji is 265% cheaper than in Australia. The average weekly rent for a one-bedroom apartment in an Australian city is $426.20 AUD. The monthly cost of a modern two-bedroom apartment next to our office can be as little as $92.50 AUD. Similarly, while basic expenses like electricity cost an average of $54 AUD weekly in Australia, they cost only $29 AUD in Fiji. 

This means that the Fijian employees still earn a decent living wage by outsourcing to Fiji, even while paying less per team member. 

 

We Supply Employees With all the Equipment They Need 

Unlike hiring an employee to work in your business locally, Our Pacific Office covers all the equipment costs for your new team member. We supply each team member with a workstation, computer, and steady internet connection to prepare them to begin work. This means you only need to worry about inducting them into your organisation.

Our Pacific Office is also responsible for all ongoing management issues. We help manage probationary periods and performance evaluations to minimise risk exposure, enabling you to focus on what matters most in your business. 

Fiji has an Abundance of New Talent Each Year

  

With over 5,000 new graduates entering the workforce annually, skilled junior team members are easy to find. Across every outsourced position, many employees will have relevant university degrees. This means that your employees can leverage their skills to help your business.

The local university recommends Our Pacific Office to local graduates so they can get started in their careers. That means we can always find the right people for your team at the right price for your business.

 

Conclusion

Finding a team that’s both skilled and cost-effective can be difficult. Despite this, leveraging the power of outsourcing can be a powerful way to solve this problem. A specialised offshore team can save your business up to 70% on their human resources costs.
