Hiring in Guatemala

Famous for its volcanoes, loud and colourful buses and amazingly well-preserved Mayan ruins, Guatemala is Central America’s most populous country, home to 17.2 million people. Guatemala has a rich yet turbulent pre- and post-colonial history and is today developing into one of Latin America’s most promising nations in terms of foreign investment.

Guatemala’s economy is still overwhelmingly dominated by agriculture, with coffee, sugar and bananas making up a third of exports. There is also a developed textiles and clothing industry.

Despite being a leader in the region in terms of output and GDP, Guatemalans face a raft of issues ranging from living below the poverty line to corruption and unfair treatment at work. Care is needed when it comes to investing in Guatemala from an ethical standpoint, with sweatshops and underpaid labour common. An expert payroll partner is a good option for businesses looking to hire in Guatemala.
