Explore the model

Our employees. Your team.

Your Icelandic-speaking team is employed directly by Arctic Sea ehf., operating as Icelandic BPO ehf. No freelance marketplace or chain of subcontractors between us and our people.

Fair pay is part of the model.

Workers are paid in line with the applicable collective bargaining agreement. The agreement and employment terms are established for each role.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

Let’s make
things clear.

Are your team members employees or contractors?+

They are employed directly by Arctic Sea ehf., operating as Icelandic BPO ehf. Our model is built around an employment relationship with the people doing your work.

How do you keep pricing competitive?+

Our team works from home, reducing office overhead. Pricing is scoped around your workload, channels, coverage and requirements, with applicable collective-agreement pay built into the model.

Can you help us change from another provider?+

Yes. Start by sharing the scope of your Icelandic operations. We can then agree a transition plan covering recruitment, training, access and handover. Timing depends on the team and preparation your programme needs.

Which collective agreement applies?+

The applicable agreement depends on the role and employment circumstances. It is established as part of the employment terms. We do not apply one generic wage rate to every role.
