Hire in Italy — Codice Civile + CCNL contracts, INPS, IRPEF, and TFR on one ledger.
No Italian S.r.l. setup, no INPS registration queue on your side. Bordero staffs an Italian EOR entity, drafts a Codice Civile + applicable CCNL contract, registers with INPS, applies TFR accrual, and files IRPEF withholding on the monthly cycle.
Italian labour law is anchored on the Civil Code (Libro V, Titolo II — Del lavoro), the Workers' Statute (L. 300/1970 Statuto dei lavoratori), and the applicable CCNL (Contratto Collettivo Nazionale di Lavoro). Statutory probation differs by worker category: operai (blue-collar) capped at 90 days; impiegati (white-collar) extendable up to six months via CCNL. v1 picks 90 days as the conservative default.
Statutory social contributions are routed through INPS (Istituto Nazionale della Previdenza Sociale) and INAIL (Istituto Nazionale per l'Assicurazione contro gli Infortuni sul Lavoro); severance accrues through TFR (Trattamento di Fine Rapporto) under D.Lgs. 252/2005 and Codice Civile art. 2120. IRPEF (Imposta sul Reddito delle Persone Fisiche) is bracket-aware under D.P.R. 917/86 (TUIR) and reconciled annually via the 730 return cycle. v1 collapses INPS EE math and IRPEF bracket math to flat effective rates, with the payslip notice surfacing both approximations.

Compliance snapshot
Italy — what Bordero carries on the ledger.
The collapsed percentages are v1 demo approximations — declared on the payslip notice and replaced with cap- and bracket-aware math for non-trivial demographics before paying a hire. Talk to sales for a counsel-reviewed breakdown.
Contract & filings
What the country-specific contract covers.
A Italy employment relationship is built on the governing law below. Bordero issues the contract, registers the entity, and handles the entity-side liabilities on the same ledger — your finance team reconciles once.
Governing law
- Codice Civile Libro V + CCNL-aligned contract: probation capped under art. 2096, notice ladder under artt. 2118–2120, and Statuto dei Lavoratori (L. 300/1970) clauses declaring individual + collective liberty / non-discrimination on union-membership grounds.
- INPS registration on employment commencement; monthly INPS contributions filed on the entity side with the EE side collapsed into the social tile (flat 9.19% in v1 — INPS wage-base ceiling not applied).
- INAIL workers' comp registration and contributions handled on the entity side.
- TFR (Trattamento di Fine Rapporto) accrual declared under D.Lgs. 252/2005 + Codice Civile art. 2120 — declared-accrued-not-computed in v1.
- IRPEF declared in the contract; v1 collapses the bracket math to a flat 25% effective rate; the payslip notice flags the 730-cycle annual reconciliation.
Notice & probation
How termination runs in Italy.
v1 collapses bracket-by-tenure terms into a flat default — the notice paragraph surfaces where production employers should review the bracket choice with counsel before any termination.
- Notice ladder under Codice Civile artt. 2118–2120 — v1 collapses to a flat 30-day default; the bracket-by-tenure shape is not modelled in v1 (surface in a policy letter).
- Probation under Codice Civile art. 2096 — operai ≤ 90 days, impiegati up to 6 months via CCNL; v1 picks 90 as the conservative default.
- CCNL referral declared in the offer letter — the applicable CCNL (metalmeccanici, commercio, terziario, etc.) is "to be communicated before commencement" since v1 cannot pick a specific CCNL.
Hiring non-residents
Right-to-work and immigration for Italy.
Non-EEA hires route through the work-permit cycle before they touch payroll. The contract template holds the permit carve-out so a baseline IAM reshape never gates on a still-pending permit.
Permesso di soggiorno (residence permit) + EU Blue Card mapped per hire for non-EEA citizens; non-EEA hires onboard only after the permit clears.
- Permesso di soggiorno (residence permit) + EU Blue Card mapped per hire for non-EEA citizens — Polizia di Stato / Ministero degli Interni decision archived before contract countersignature.
- Right-to-work for EU / EEA nationals clears without a permit; non-EEA hires require an active permesso di soggiorno with the right work-authorisation mode.
- Codice fiscale registration acquired by the entity during onboarding; tied to the IRPEF + INPS tiles in the payslip and the 730 return cycle.
