HR Services in Nepal for International Companies & Growing Businesses
Setting up HR in Nepal is not just about hiring employees—it involves navigating labor laws, compliance requirements, and operational challenges that many international organizations are not familiar with.
At Sanchaya Services, we help international companies, NGOs, and growing businesses build structured, compliant, and scalable HR systems tailored to Nepal’s regulatory environment.
How HR Works in Nepal
HR management in Nepal is governed by the Labor Act 2017, which defines key requirements for employment, compliance, and workplace management.
Organizations operating in Nepal must ensure:
- Proper employment contracts aligned with Nepal labor law
- Compliance with leave, benefits, and working hour regulations
- Accurate payroll and statutory contributions
- Clear grievance handling and disciplinary procedures
Failure to comply can lead to legal risks and operational challenges. Our HR services ensure your organization stays compliant while maintaining efficient HR operations.
