SLBFE-licensed overseas recruitment
Manpower Agency in Sri Lanka for International Employers
Worthy Hands helps verified overseas employers recruit skilled and semi-skilled manpower from Sri Lanka. We coordinate targeted sourcing, screening, employer interviews, skills assessments and compliant mobilisation under SLBFE Licence No. 3196.
Sri Lankan manpower recruitment
A dependable local partner for overseas workforce needs
Choosing a manpower agency in Sri Lanka is an important operational decision. International employers need more than a list of available candidates: they need accurate role matching, organised selection, clear communication and dependable coordination throughout the recruitment journey.
Worthy Hands begins with the employer’s workforce requirement. Our team reviews the roles, required skills, headcount, working conditions and intended mobilisation schedule before beginning candidate sourcing. This creates a structured recruitment campaign aligned with the actual vacancy rather than a generic candidate search.
The employer remains responsible for the final hiring decision. We support that decision by coordinating candidate profiles, interviews, practical assessments and the local procedures required for approved overseas employment.

Sri Lanka provides access to workers across trades, production and service industries. A successful campaign depends on matching the right people to the right employment conditions.

For technical and trade occupations, Worthy Hands can coordinate employer interviews and practical assessments. Employers can participate directly and approve the candidates they want to hire.
Local mobilisation coordination
After selection, our team coordinates applicable medical, document, regulatory, visa, pre-departure and travel stages in Sri Lanka while communicating progress to the employer.
