Franchising is a system of relations between companies in which one party (the franchisor) transfers to the other party (the franchisee) for a fee the right to a certain type of business, using the developed business model of the franchisor. With a franchise, the franchisee can act on his own behalf using the franchisor’s technology, trademarks or brands.
Most often, a franchisor is a company with extensive experience in doing business, a recognizable brand, a solid reputation and a large number of clients. A franchisee, in turn, is a company that buys the right to operate under the franchisor’s brand.
Training of franchisee employees in franchisor technologies
The main task of the franchisee at the first stage is staff training. At the same time, according to the law, the copyright holder is obliged to provide the user consulting support in training and advanced training of employees.
At this stage, it is necessary to properly formalize relations with the franchisee’s employees for their training and/or advanced training on the franchisor’s territory. Many people make a mistake and recruit the franchisee’s staff into the franchisor’s staff, signing up for a fixed-term employment contract, part-time work or internship.
However, this is not the right decision, since the risk of recognizing an employment contract as concluded for an indefinite period is extremely high. In addition, difficulties may arise with documentation if an employee receives a work injury.
How to properly arrange a business trip for franchisee employees
The correct option would be to arrange a business trip for an employee during training on the franchisor’s territory.
This will require an order from the employer. When sending one employee on a business trip, standard samples of form No. T-9 are suitable. For several employees – form No. T-9a.
An example of the basis for sending a franchisee employee on a business trip could be the following instruction:
“To receive consulting/information services on issues….”. It is also recommended to separately describe the details of training in a separate agreement.
With OneTwoTrip for Business you can organize a business trip to the franchisor’s office for several employees quickly, conveniently and on favorable terms. Registration takes no more than two minutes, and you can pay for the order in any convenient way at the same time: with a corporate card, from a deposit or by postpayment to your account. No monthly fees or hidden fees.
