The 2025 HIRE Act: What It Means for Outsourcing

The 2025 HIRE Act: What It Means for Your Business

The newly introduced HIRE Act (Halting International Relocation of Employment Act of 2025) could dramatically reshape outsourcing. If passed, the law would add a 25% excise tax on payments to foreign entities for labor that benefits U.S. consumers and eliminate the ability to deduct those payments as business expenses. For companies relying on offshore or nearshore teams in India, Canada, Mexico, or beyond, this could mean outsourcing costs nearly doubling overnight.

At AISymmetric, we believe preparation is the best defense. Our team helps organizations assess their exposure, model financial impact, and design offsetting solutions — from hybrid workforce strategies to AI-driven automation. By running an Impact & Risk Assessment, we give you clarity on where you stand today and how to pivot for tomorrow.

This is more than just compliance; it’s about future-proofing your operations. Companies that act now can reduce risk, strengthen resilience, and even unlock new opportunities as the labor landscape shifts.
