How Does an Employer of Record Work? - ricerick - 01-27-2025
Hi folks, I’ve recently been tasked with exploring options for hiring employees in other countries, and I keep hearing about Employer of Record (EOR) services. I understand that they help with legal and administrative processes, but I’d love to know more details about how they operate. For instance, do they take care of local taxes and employment laws, or is it more of a limited service? Are there any reliable providers you’d recommend?

Yes, I can. The Employer of Record acts as the legal employer for your team members worldwide to manage all things compliance, payroll, benefits and local regulations while you still keep control over their day-to-day work tasks. It is especially good if you don't want to have to register a foreign entity and still need someone to help you hire globally. It has services that are explained in full detail, outlining the benefits and services that make global expansion simple: https://theemployerofrecord.com/services/eor. To sum it up, according to my exposure, an EOR removes the risks of operating overseas and makes it possible for talent recruitment to be carried out quickly without getting caught up in the web of complex labor laws.
