Answering all your questions about independent contractor agreements in Indonesia

You probably have questions. We’re here to answer them. Below, you’ll learn all the extra stuff you should probably know before putting together an independent contractor agreement for Indonesia.

Why do I need an independent contractor agreement in Indonesia?

Two main reasons independent contractor agreements are important—in Indonesia and in the rest of the world—are transparency and prevention. Having all the relevant information in writing, like payment method or scope of work, will help both sides reach their work goals without major issues. You don’t want to get to the day before the due date and realize your contractor misunderstood the key details of your project.

Having a written contract prevents you from misunderstands and legal issues down the line—and it can create more trust between you and your contractor.

What do contractor agreements in Indonesia typically need to have?

Every contractor agreement in Indonesia (and, the rest of the world) can be broken up into two parts:

  • Contract-specific variables: This includes things like scope of work, rate, and deadline. They’re the project-specific variables that you’ll include with each contract, and are totally dependent on what type of work you’re hiring a contractor to do.
  • Everything else: Besides things like scope and deadline, every independent contractor agreement in Indonesia should follow a similar structure. If you want to grab your own contract with a compliant structure for Indonesia, sign up to Thera for $0.
What makes contractors different from employees in Indonesia?

At first, you probably wondered if it would be better if you hired the person as an employee. The answer is usually no. The biggest reason most entrepreneurs choose to write up an independent contractor agreement with their Indonesian talent is efficiency. Onboarding someone as a remote employee will cost more and you won’t be able to start your collaboration for months! Contractor agreements give both you and the person you hire much more flexibility.

Here are a few of the key things that make contractors different from employees in Indonesia:

  • Contractors can set their own schedules
  • Contractors can work with their own software and tools 
  • Contractors can work for other clients 
  • Contractors rarely receive benefits, like health insurance*

Of course, you can choose the route that is better for your business. But if you’re the type that likes more autonomy in the remote workplace, hiring a contractor is the best way to go. And who doesn’t? Just imagine, no hand-holding and a tiring 9 to 5 schedule! Your team will be relaxed and ready to thrive in no time.
