Issuance of a Manpower Supply Agency License

This service is provided to individuals requesting to obtain a preliminary approval to issue a manpower supply agency license which allows the licensee to supply workers to work for a third party for a specific period or to accomplish a specific task without supervision from the employer (the supplier) on execution of the work. The issuance of the license takes place in two stages, the initial approval stage and the license issuance stage. The license applicant can practice the activity after the license is issued by the LMRA, with a one year validity and should be renewed annually.
