主要收获
- Chile is a stable country for global hiring: A skilled workforce, strong infrastructure, and growing tech sector make it a key market for expansion in Latin America.
- Labor reforms are changing hiring requirements: The phased move to a 40-hour workweek and strict contractor classification rules need careful compliance planning.
- Employment costs go beyond salary: Make sure to budget for mandatory profit-sharing bonuses, pension contributions, statutory benefits, and the January 2026 minimum wage increase to CLP 539,000.
- Hire in Chile without setting up a local entity: Use an employer of record (EOR) to simplify payroll, compliance, and onboarding.
智利是企业拓展拉丁美洲市场的重要基地。国家/地区提供经济稳定、开放的贸易环境，以及在金融、科技、采矿和可再生能源等领域获得熟练人才的机会。
但新的劳动改革正在重塑智利企业的招聘方式。我们的指南涵盖了在智利组建合规团队所需了解的一切。
在智利招聘前需要了解哪些信息
Before you hire employees in Chile, take a deep dive into the country’s labor rules and workplace expectations.
以下是需要规划的四个关键领域：
1 。新的40小时工作周转换
Chile is moving toward a 40-hour workweek under the country’s 40 Hours Law. The rollout follows a phased timeline:
- 44 hours per week from April 2024
- 42 hours per week from April 2026
- 40 hours per week from April 2028
雇主必须按50 %的加班费支付加班费，且加班时间每天不得超过两小时。新规还允许员工将加班时间转换为额外假期——每年最多可额外获得五天假期。
2 。没有法律缓刑期
智利没有法定缓刑期。员工从入职之日起就享有全面的劳动保障。
You’ll also need to finalize and sign written employment contracts within 15 days of the employee’s start date. Missing this deadline triggers fines of up to 5 UTM — a government-set penalty unit worth roughly CLP 340,000, or about USD 350, depending on the monthly exchange rate.
3 。净薪水谈判
智利的候选人根据净工资进行谈判，而不是按年度工资总额进行谈判。
这很重要，因为员工通过工资扣除承担了很大一部分社会保障费用。这些扣除项包括：
- 10 %养老金缴款
- 7 % 健康保险缴费
- 失业保险金
In addition, Chilean law requires employers to pay a statutory annual bonus called gratificación. This bonus can be calculated as a share of company profits or as a fixed amount. Most employers also offer aguinaldos, or holiday bonuses, during Christmas and Chilean Independence Day.
4 。西班牙语要求
所有具有法律约束力的雇佣文件必须符合以下条件：
- 用西班牙语撰写
- Two signed originals are legally required (one for each party). Keeping an extra copy on-site for inspections is a best practice.
Companies expanding into Chile often use local legal advisors or partner with an employer of record (EOR) to stay compliant and reduce contract risks.
智利主要招聘中心
选择合适的人才，首先要选择合适的地点：
- Santiago is Chile’s main business and financial center. The city leads the country in finance, technology, startups, and multinational headquarters. It also houses the country’s largest professional talent pool, making it a safe bet for companies building teams in Chile.
- Valparaíso and Viña del Mar are growing technology and professional services hubs. Many companies use them as a lower-cost alternative to Santiago while still gaining solid technical talent. The region is known for software development, logistics technology, and professional services.
- Antofagasta sits at the center of Chile’s mining economy and is widely recognized as a global mining technology hub. Companies hiring here often look for talent in industrial engineering, automation, robotics, and mining technology.
- Concepción is one of southern Chile’s largest industrial and university centers. Strong research institutions and manufacturing activity spark competition for technical talent. The city is a top location for hiring in research, applied engineering, and industrial software.
智利的主要产业
Understanding where Chile’s hiring market is strongest helps you benchmark salaries, target talent pools, and plan a better hiring strategy.
- Mining and minerals: Chile is the world’s largest copper producer and one of the leading lithium producers globally. Companies are actively hiring industrial engineers, automation specialists, robotics experts, and professionals with experience in autonomous mining systems.
- Information technology: Chile has one of the most developed digital markets in Latin America. Job demand is strong for software engineers, cybersecurity specialists, AI experts, cloud professionals, and talent specializing in 5G applications and digital infrastructure. Hiring activity has also increased, following Chile’s Cybersecurity Framework Law in 2024.
- Renewable energy: Chile is quickly upgrading its solar and wind energy capacity as part of its long-term green energy transition. The country’s northern regions support some of the world’s largest solar projects thanks to high solar exposure and large-scale infrastructure investment.
- Fintech: Chile’s fintech sector continues to grow following the introduction of the 2023 Fintech Law, which created a regulatory framework for financial innovation. The sector is driving demand for talent in digital payments, lending technology, compliance, financial management platforms, and regulatory technology.
- Industrial engineering and manufacturing: Chile’s industrial sector supports demand for applied engineering and operational talent, particularly in logistics, manufacturing, and infrastructure development. Common roles include mechanical engineers, operations managers, industrial software specialists, and supply chain professionals.

在智利雇用员工之前，您需要具备合法的经营场所。大多数公司会在设立本地实体或与专业雇主合作之间做出选择。

在智利招聘的关键步骤
智利的聘用流程与您所在国家/地区的流程相似，但存在当地的细微差别。 以下是您需要了解的内容：
1 。战略采购
Personal networking plays an important role in Chile’s hiring market, but digital hiring channels are highly effective. Many employers use local job boards like Laborum alongside specialized technology and professional networks to reach qualified candidates. If you’re hiring remote employees in Chile, clearly state this in the job description.
2 。结构化面试
Structured interviews and case-based assessments improve hiring consistency and reduce bias during candidate evaluations. Keep Chile’s strict anti-discrimination laws in mind — avoid questions regarding an applicant's marital status or trade union affiliation. For virtual interviews, remember to schedule meetings using the candidate’s local time zone.
3 。合同最终确定
You must finalize a written employment contract before your new hire begins. Pay close attention to ensuring the clause of exclusivity is included, along with the mandatory Spanish text. The contract must also clearly outline the location, start date, remuneration, and work schedule.
4.入职
Once the contract is signed, onboarding begins. This process usually includes policy reviews, compliance paperwork, and training. One of the most important compliance steps is registering the new hire with Chile’s social security system within 30 days of employment. With G-P EOR, your team skips the complexity of local onboarding requirements. We manage payroll, compliance, and employment administration in Chile, so you can focus on training and integrating new hires.
在智利雇用独立合同工
在智利雇用独立承包商可以让您的团队快速获得专业人才，而无需承担长期雇佣义务。但必须仔细构建合同关系，以避免误分类风险。
在智利雇用合同工之前，请记住以下几点：
现实优先原则
Chile follows the primacy of reality principle, meaning labor authorities look at the actual working relationship, not just the contract language. This means if a contractor works under a company’s direction and control, they’ll be classified as an employee — regardless of what the agreement says.
主要风险因素包括：
- 固定工时
- 直接监督
- 独家工作安排
- 对一家公司的持续依赖
误分类风险
在智利，将雇员错误地归类为承包商会引发严重的商业纠纷。
其中包括：
- 追溯性社会保障缴款
- 法定福利的补发款项
- 劳动法庭罚款和处罚
这时， G-P承包商就派上用场了。
