How do you solve legal issues? If you don't have any contract with your employees, what if they contact personally your consumers and the work personally done?
I have visited the countries where our employees are, registered our startup there and made a non-compete contract ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-compete_clause )with them. But this costs me time and money.
If you don't have any agreements with them, how do you manage your works and where/how do you find good employees over internet?
I should probably clarify; with one exception, all of our current team are salaried employees of our limited company, and we pay their NI etc. Our contracts have the usual non-compete for 12 months after ending employment stuff in there, but so far no-one has left the company, so we haven't had to deal with anything like that yet.
Finding workers hasn't been a problem to date, as we have generally grown organically, and most people have freelanced with us before they became employees, or we have worked with them in some capacity before we started the company. I think it's more accurate to say that while our team is geographically distributed, we share a really close social network. I did a really quick blog post about this last week:
