Hiring in Canada

Nestled north of the United States, Canada emerges as an independent haven for international business. With a formidable nominal GDP of US$1.9 trillion, Canada ranks as the world's ninth-largest economy (2021). As a key member of the G7 and the North American Free Trade Agreement, Canada assumes a pivotal role on the global stage.

Boasting a service-centric economy, with services constituting 75% of its overall economic landscape, Canada beckons incoming investments. Its bilingual culture, catering to both English and French-speaking nations worldwide, enhances its market appeal. For businesses seeking lucrative prospects beyond the US, Canada stands as a promising and dynamic international arena. Unlock new opportunities for business growth and success with expert payroll services in Canada.

Testimonials

Hear from our clients about our payroll services in Canada

With TopSource we were able to have employees hired or maintained in Nutreco without having to establish an entity in these countries for only 1-2 employees. I think most countries are covered by TopSource, so they can help us with almost all cases. Good advice on conditions and direct contact with employees. Invoicing done directly to the company. An easy process compared to hiring employees by ourselves.

We searched the market for a local payroll vendor in 2014 and we chose TopSource as our partner. We were looking for error free and timely payroll processing and TopSource Worldwide delivers this, saving us time and money. We have worked together for 8 years now and would recommend them to anyone.

TopSource Worldwide has a detailed and methodical onboarding process that made it easy for us to get set up and running with our UK employees. They were able to take the worry out of trying to comply with all local laws and regulations. Because they have this knowledge we do not have to research on our own and hope we are in compliance. This has saved us hours of time and gives both the company and employees a sense of security.
