Offshoring has proven to be not just a cost improvement strategy, but also a growth strategy. It has become a viable solution for addressing talent challenges, as companies strive to ensure the continuity of their operations by hiring offshore talent.

When it comes to selecting the best partner, the Philippines has consistently delivered exceptional results. Filipino talent has garnered high demand in the global outsourcing industry due to their proficiency in the English language, strong work ethic, and cultural compatibility with Western clients.

In this article, we will delve into the reasons why offshore teams in the Philippines should be a top consideration for your business, complementing the aforementioned benefits.

Discover additional benefits of remote offshore teams in the Philippines that are often overlooked:

Cost-effective labour leading to reduced operational costs

With a lower cost of living in the Philippines compared to many Western countries, salaries and wages are also significantly lower. In fact, labour costs in the Philippines are 30-50% lower than in the US and Europe. This affordability allows businesses to hire highly skilled workers at a fraction of the cost of local hires.

Healthy work attributes promoting high morale, output, and efficiency

Filipino workers are known for their strong work ethic, dedication, and commitment to their jobs. These qualities contribute to a positive work environment and can significantly impact the productivity and efficiency of remote offshore teams in the Philippines. 

Here are some of the favourable work traits you can expect from Filipino professionals:

• Optimistic outlook. Filipino professionals maintain a positive attitude, even in challenging situations, contributing to a productive work environment and strong customer relations.
• Reliability. They are dependable, proactive team members who excel with minimal supervision, displaying attentiveness and quick learning abilities.
• Hard work and resourcefulness. Filipinos demonstrate a strong work ethic, accountability, and a knack for finding creative solutions to workplace challenges.
• Hospitality. Rooted in Filipino culture, workers prioritise friendliness, collaboration, and delivering exceptional experiences to customers, clients, and colleagues.

Amenable to changing work shifts for nonstop customer service

Offshoring to the Philippines offers businesses seeking round-the-clock operational and customer service the ideal solution, as Filipino remote workers are highly flexible, adaptable to different time zones, and willing to work on weekends, late hours, and holidays.

If your business is based in Australia or the UK, leveraging the time difference of 4-10 hours can provide you with extended operational hours. Similarly, if your business is based in the US, you can have an on-site or onshore team handling the day shift, while the offshore team in the Philippines works at night. This arrangement allows your business to address customer concerns and handle processes more efficiently and rapidly.

Decreased legal and management accountabilities to reduce costs 

Offshoring your remote teams from the Philippines protects you from potential legal responsibilities associated with direct staff hiring. Establishing your own company in the Philippines entails compliance and staying updated with various policies, standards, regulations, laws, and administrative measures, all of which require a certain level of expertise and significant administrative work that can consume most of your time. However, when you choose to offshore, we will handle all activities related to human resource and personnel management. This includes regularly tracking functions such as employee attendance, personal income taxes, and leaves, and submitting reports for your review.

Scalable operations for better cost management

Choosing the right offshore partner in the Philippines enables effortless team scalability without termination processes or inflated expenses, ensuring consistent compensation and benefits for full-time employees.
