Frequently asked questions

How do I choose an Employer of Record (EOR)?

When choosing a global EOR solution you should ask the following questions:

1. Does the EOR offer services in all countries you wish to hire in?
2. Does the EOR support your particular industry?
3. Does the EOR have a user-friendly platform?
4. Is the EOR the most cost-effective option for your needs?

Is an Employer of Record (EOR) the same as a Professional Employer Organization (PEO)?

Sometimes the term PEO is used to describe a company that supports clients in HR and payroll tasks, but does not become the legal employer.

When applied internationally, the terms ‘global EOR’ and ‘global PEO’ are generally used interchangeably.

Can I switch from a global payroll solution to an Employer of Record (EOR)?

Yes. When you switch from a payroll to an EOR solution, the employees cease to be employees of your entity, and will become employees of the EOR.

What if my business wants to hire in a foreign country but does not have an entity?
