Introduction
Population Services International (PSI) is a global nonprofit organization focused on encouraging healthy behavior and increasing the affordability of health products. PSI was founded in 1970 to improve reproductive health using commercial marketing strategies and has expanded to work in over 40 countries in the areas of malaria, family planning, HIV, diarrhea, pneumonia and sanitation. PSI is headquartered in Washington, DC. A hallmark of PSI is a commitment to the principle that health services and products are most effective when they are accompanied by robust communications and distribution efforts that help ensure wide acceptance and proper use. PSI works in partnership with local governments, ministries of health and local organizations to create health solutions that are built to last. For further information on PSI’s size, scope, structure, and strategy refer to www.psi.org.
PSI’s work in Senegal
The USAID Senegal Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) Services Activity involves improving sanitation and water products and services, increasing demand for these services, and promoting women's leadership and empowerment. PSI will be a subcontractor under this award.
Scope Of Work
Population Services International (PSI) is a U.S. headquartered organization based in Washington, DC, which operates in 40+ countries around the world. PSI is the world’s leading non-profit social marketing organization. PSI is reimagining healthcare, by putting the consumer at the center, and wherever possible – bringing care to the front door. We are working to fix market failures, shape future health markets and shift policy and funding to better support consumer powered healthcare. There are over “300 PSI’ers” in the U.S. and 5,000 “PSI’ers” total around the world.
While “PSI’ers” typical working from locations where PSI has established operations, on occasion we have a need to hire talent that is based in a location where we do not operate. PSI is looking for a solution to ensure that in these instances we are compliant with requirements for employing local staff.
Given our nature of work and always changing global workforce, additional needs for EOR or payroll solution are being requested. Employees will typically not require support on work authorization.
Immediately, we are looking for a solution for hiring and maintaining staff in Senegal. PSI does not currently have an office in Senegal. PSI would like the firm to:
