Otta's take

Theo Margolius headshot

Theo Margolius

COO of Otta

The travel restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in many workers being forced to work from home, and this led to many people realizing that they could work remotely from anywhere in the world. This not only presents benefits for employees but also employers who have a larger pool of international prospective staff to choose from, but this comes with difficult HR management challenges.

Workmotion develops bespoke SaaS platforms for the management of international hiring, onboarding, human resource management, and compliance across over 160 countries. This prevents businesses from having to set up foreign offices and workforces to handle international HR challenges, making global expansion more affordable and less time-consuming.

The challenges of managing international HR compliance have been brought to light due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and naturally, this means that Workmotion faces competition from other companies tackling the same problems. However, the company currently stands out due to its bespoke handling of each client scenario, realizing that no single set of tools is sufficient for every company.
