WHO USES IT HERE

Contract Staffing for Kolkata employers

Microfinance institutions and NBFCs headquartered in Kolkata take field officers and collection staff on contract to expand into new districts without adding fixed headcount. IT teams in Salt Lake Sector V use contract developers and testers for client projects, and engineering units in Howrah and Haldia engage contract engineers for shutdowns, upgrades and commissioning work. Contracts are billed monthly against project or expansion budgets, and each contractor can be extended, converted to your rolls on pre-agreed terms, or released at the end of the engagement.

Multi-state field contracts

Field staff posted outside West Bengal are paid under the rules of the state where they actually work.

Shutdown windows

Engineering contracts for Haldia and Howrah units can be aligned to planned shutdown dates.
