What is an employer of record (EOR)?

An Employer of Record (EOR) is a service provider that allows companies to legally hire and work with employees in foreign countries without establishing their own legal entity in that country.

This is made possible through a legal arrangement where the EOR establishes its own legal entity in the country and hires employees on behalf of the client company.

This arrangement offers a viable solution for companies that wish to expand their global reach without investing in setting up a legal entity in every country where they operate.

About the role
