Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is ITFS Umbrella?
ITFS Umbrella is our HR & Payroll Services solution operating as an employer of record (EOR) model. ITFS becomes the legal employer of your IT consultants, handling all employment formalities—contracts, payroll, benefits, compliance—while you maintain full control over their daily work and project assignments. It’s a complete, hassle-free employment solution.
What’s the difference between Umbrella and hiring consultants directly?
When you hire directly, you’re responsible for all HR administration: employment contracts, payroll processing, tax compliance, benefits sourcing, and ongoing HR management. With Umbrella, ITFS handles all of this on your behalf. You get access to top IT talent without the administrative burden, compliance risk, or need to maintain an internal HR department.
How quickly can we get consultants onboarded under Umbrella?
Most consultants are fully onboarded and operational within 1-2 weeks of initial agreement. We handle all contracts, background checks, and onboarding procedures quickly and professionally, ensuring minimal delay between your decision to hire and the consultant starting work.

How does pricing work for Umbrella services?
We charge a transparent monthly fee per consultant, covering all HR and payroll services. The exact fee depends on the scope of services you require and the number of consultants. We’ll provide clear, upfront pricing during our initial consultation—no hidden costs or surprise fees.
Can we customize the scope of Umbrella services?
Absolutely. We understand that every company has unique needs. Whether you need full-service support or assistance with specific functions, we tailor the scope to fit your requirements perfectly. We’ll work with you to define exactly which services you need and adjust our offering accordingly.
What benefits do consultants receive under Umbrella?
Consultants working under ITFS Umbrella enjoy comprehensive benefits including medical packages, sports and wellness benefits, and additional perks that enhance their quality of life. We handle all benefits administration, ensuring consultants are well cared for throughout their employment.
Who manages the consultants’ daily work?
You do. While ITFS is the legal employer handling all administrative and HR functions, you maintain complete control over consultants’ daily work, project assignments, performance management, and technical direction. Umbrella removes administrative burden, not managerial control.
What if we already have an HR department?
Umbrella can complement your existing HR team by taking specific functions off their plate—such as payroll processing, benefits administration, or compliance management for IT consultants. This allows your internal HR to focus on core employees or strategic initiatives while we handle consultant administration.
Is ITFS Umbrella compliant with Polish and international labor laws?
Yes. Since 2012, we’ve been providing HR and payroll services, maintaining full compliance with Polish labor law and staying current with all regulatory changes. Our team ensures every contract, payment, and process meets legal requirements, protecting you from compliance risk.
What happens if a consultant leaves or we need to scale down?
Umbrella provides complete flexibility. If a consultant’s assignment ends, we handle all termination procedures professionally and compliantly. If you need to scale your team up or down, we adapt quickly—adding new consultants or managing departures as your needs evolve.
Can Umbrella work with our existing systems and processes?
Yes. We integrate with your existing systems and workflows, providing seamless coordination that minimizes disruption. Whether you use specific project management tools, time tracking systems, or internal platforms, we adapt to your processes.
What kind of support do consultants receive?
Consultants receive ongoing care and support throughout their employment. Our team is always available to answer questions, resolve issues, and provide guidance. From initial onboarding through years of employment, consultants know they can count on professional, responsive support from ITFS.
Why should we choose ITFS over other HR outsourcing providers?
Since 2012, with 450+ consultants currently under Umbrella and a 4.9 Google rating, we’ve proven our ability to deliver exceptional service. Our individual approach, transparent pricing, proven track record, and professional team set us apart. We don’t just process payroll—we become your trusted partner in employment management.
