Questions, answered honestly.
What job seekers and employers ask us most. Can’t find yours? Ask us directly.
For job seekers
Is a contract or third-party payroll job a good job?
It can be a very good one. You work in a real role at a global company and gain experience that counts on your CV, while OmHRA employs you and pays your salary and statutory benefits. What matters is that the agency is genuine: it never charges you, pays on time and puts PF on your payslip.
Do contract employees get PF, ESI and gratuity?
Yes. On OmHRA’s payroll you get PF, ESI where your salary makes you eligible, gratuity on qualifying service as the law provides, and leave as per your appointment letter.
Who pays my salary, OmHRA or the client?
OmHRA does, every month on a fixed date. We have run 100% of our payrolls on time since 2014.
Do I have to pay anything to get a job through OmHRA?
Never. OmHRA does not charge candidates at any stage. If anyone asks you for money in our name, it’s a scam; report it to hr@omhra.in.
Can a contract role become permanent?
Sometimes. Some clients move contract staff onto their own rolls, and some roles are contract-to-hire from the start. We’ll always tell you upfront which kind of role it is.
What happens when my assignment ends?
We work to place you in your next role. If that isn’t possible, your notice and exit follow your appointment letter, and your full and final settlement is paid as per our policy.
Will working on contract hurt my chances of a permanent job later?
No. Employers look at what you did and where. Experience on a global company’s team, in a real role, strengthens your profile.
How do I apply, and how soon will I hear back?
Apply through our jobs page or on WhatsApp. You’ll get an instant confirmation, and a recruiter calls you if your profile fits, usually within a few working days.
For employers
What’s the difference between an Employer of Record and a staffing agency?
A staffing agency finds the people and employs them for you. An Employer of Record only employs people you have already chosen. OmHRA does both. Compare all five models
Can we hire in India without setting up an entity?
Yes. Through an Employer of Record, OmHRA employs your India team on your behalf until your own entity is ready.
Is it safe to keep long-term workers on freelance contracts?
It’s risky. If authorities treat them as employees, back-dated PF, interest and other statutory dues can follow. Moving them onto a compliant structure, such as Employer of Record, removes that risk.
What should we check before choosing a staffing partner?
Ask about their payroll record, how they reconcile billing, whether their compliance documents are current, how long their workers stay, and whether they charge candidates. A good partner answers all five without hesitation.
How fast can you start?
We share the first screened shortlist within five working days of a calibration call. Employer of Record and payroll onboarding start as soon as offers and documents are ready.
Do you work through MSP and VMS programmes?
Yes. We’re a Tier-1 supplier on a global MSP programme and reconcile attendance against VMS billing every month before invoicing. We also work directly with GCCs and enterprises.
Which cities do you cover?
Delhi NCR, Noida and Bangalore under contract labour licences, and we’re expanding to Hyderabad.
Can you pass our security and compliance assessment?
Yes. Our compliance and information security documentation is complete and current, and we’ve already cleared enterprise client security and privacy assessments.
