Employer of Record, demystified

Employer of Record (EOR) is often presented as the solution of choice to enable compliant employment across borders. Yet while the term is widely used, what Employer of Record actually looks like in day-to-day employment is not always clear. This guide explains what an Employer of Record is, how EOR services work in practice, and how EOR is used to support global employment across countries.

In this guide, you will learn:

  • What an Employer of Record is and how the three-party relationship works, and what EOR is not
  • Common myths about Employer of Record, how they arise, and what is in fact true about how EORs work
  • The benefits, costs, and key considerations of using an Employer of Record
  • How EOR compares with setting up a local entity
  • What to consider when evaluating Employer of Record providers and EOR services
