Recruiting Manpower From Nepal
All the interested foreign employers have to recruit through the licensed agencies registered under the Department of Labour and Employment Promotion, The Government of Nepal. These agents make direct contact and negotiate with the overseas employers for procuring manpower requirements. On receipt of any authenticated vacancy demand from the overseas employer, the licensed agent gets the relevant documents attested by the concerned Embassy of Nepal and then applies to the Director General of Labour and Employment Promotion Department for the recruitment permission. The Labour Department is the principal Government authority which supervises and monitors the recruitment process of the recruitment agencies and provides permission to export the manpower. The licensed agents should apply in the Department with the following documents for the recruitment permission.
- A copy of Power of Attorney issued by the foreign employer in
favour of the recruiting agent to act on his behalf.
- A copy of Demand Letter from the employer containing details of
the vacancies
- A copy of the employment contract or service agreement
Authentication of the documents:
The above mentioned documents “Demand Letter, Power of Attorney, Agreement between the two agencies concerned and Service Contract” should be authenticated from the Labour Department, Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the concerned country. The Embassy of Nepal authenticates the documents on the presentation of approval of the labour authorities in the relevant country, attestation by the Chamber of Commerce or any competent authority and if necessary, after the visit of the employer"s office and labour camp, if it deems to do so. If the Demand Letter is placed through the local recruitment agent, The Embassy of Nepal may ask the agents to produce the service agreement between the employer and the recruitment agents.
