Considering Hiring Employees in Chile?

Chile can be an attractive market for businesses looking to build their presence in Latin America. But finding the right person is only the beginning.

Employment contracts, payroll, benefits and local employment requirements all need to be considered before bringing someone onboard.

Employment in Chile is governed by the country’s Labour Code (Código del Trabajo), which covers individual employment relationships and wider workplace requirements. The Code continues to evolve, with Chile’s Dirección del Trabajo publishing an edition updated on 7th October 2026.

Workwell Global helps make the employment side simpler. Through our Employer of Record solution, we can manage employment-related compliance, payroll processing, tax withholding, social security contributions, employment contracts and statutory benefits.

What to Consider When Hiring Employees in Chile?

Employment Contracts in Chile

When employing someone in Chile, businesses need to work within the requirements of the Chilean Labour Code. The employment landscape has also continued to develop in recent years, with changes affecting areas including working hours, workplace protections and work-life balance. Having the right employment arrangements in place from the outset can make expanding your team much more straightforward.

 

Employment Benefits in Chile

A successful hire isn’t just about salary. Businesses employing workers in Chile also need to understand the benefits and statutory requirements that form part of the employment relationship.

Chile has requirements spanning areas such as pensions, healthcare and statutory employment protections. Workwell Global’s EOR service can manage areas including statutory benefits and social security contributions as part of the wider employment process. And where local legislation and Workwell’s in-country arrangements allow, benefits packages can be tailored to regional market practices and client requirements.

 

Employment Laws in Chile

Chile’s Labour Code provides the main framework governing employment relationships in the country and continues to be updated as new legislation is introduced. One particularly significant change has been Law No. 21,561, which progressively reduces Chile’s ordinary working week. The 2026 stage reduced the weekly limit further as the country moves towards a 40-hour working week.

For businesses hiring internationally, keeping up with changes like these can add another layer of complexity. Working with an Employer of Record means you don’t have to approach the local employment landscape alone.

So whether you want to hire one employee in Santiago or a whole team in Valparaíso, rest assured that Workwell Global has you covered.
