Navigating the Italian labor market can be challenging due to its highly regulated nature, which heavily favors employee rights. Employers are required to adhere to numerous regulatory provisions depending on the type of employee and contract involved. Compliance with Italian labor and employment laws can be both costly and time-consuming. In its role as the Employer of Record in Italy, FMC Group bears the responsibility of handling tasks such as employee income tax withholding, payment of payroll taxes to state authorities, and submission of tax returns to the Italian Tax Office.
Probation periods range from three to six months for permanent contracts. During this time, both the employer and the employee have the opportunity to assess whether the job is a good fit.
For temporary contracts, such as fixed-term contracts or project-based employment, the probationary period may be shorter or nonexistent, depending on the terms of the contract and labor laws.
