In America, many businesses take pride in offering their employees benefits (such a healthcare). Did you know you can help your Filipino VA with benefits as well?

You can add a healthcare allowance on top of your VA’s salary. They can use this to pay for their monthly premiums to PhilHealth, the country’s universal healthcare organization, or enroll themselves in a private health insurance plan.

You can also reimburse their monthly social security and Home Development Mutual Fund (HDMF) contributions. These can be paid monthly, quarterly, or annually.

You might be wondering about the tax implications of hiring remote workers from the Philippines.

Here is an excerpt we found online with a lot of valuable info:

Every business is different, so it's best to consult with your accountant about the tax implications of hiring remote staff for your company. To give you an overview of what you can generally expect, though, here's the low-down:

Do you need to pay taxes in the Philippines?
First off, you're not required to pay Philippine taxes if your business is domiciled and registered in the US. Your remote Filipino assistants are responsible for filing their own taxes and other mandatory government contributions.

Do you need to give them US-mandated benefits?
Since your Filipino staff are technically classified as remote independent contractors, you're not required to give them benefits mandated by US law, either. This also means that you don't need to file a 1099 form, as this applies to individual contractors who are physically located in the US.

What should you do on your end?
You can fill out a W8-BEN form to declare that you've got foreign subcontractors
Document all the payments you've made to your assistant for tax purposes
Consult your accountant about other tax implications of hiring remote Filipino assistants. Since your business is not domiciled or registered in the Philippines, you’re not required to cover benefits like healthcare, social security, or 13th-month pay either. However, you’re welcome to voluntarily provide allowances and other perks on top of your VA’s salary.

Take the time today and create Standard Operating Procedures for your Virtual Assistant! Here's how we suggest going about it.... write the task name, then the task’s purpose and lastly detailed steps for completing the task.

This may sound unnecessary for a bunch of mundane tasks.. however, think long term. What if one day your VA needs clarification on an old task or needs to train someone new to handle it? Having clear SOPs in place will save you more time and hassle down the line.

Are you teaching your VA how to avoid hackers and scammers? If not, it might be worth the 10-minute discussion! Don't assume that your VA knows everything that you do in terms about internet safety.

Two things we always suggest that clients teach their VAs are to avoid utilizing public Wi-Fi and to know what phishing emails look like.
