Legal compliance for global teams

Global employment compliance, no grey areas

Local rules shift often and not always with much notice. Our in-country experts and legal teams monitor those changes closely and update employment requirements as they happen. Being nearly compliant is non-compliant, which is why we focus on getting every detail right for each international hire.

FAQs

Global employment introduces important legal considerations. Start here for clear answers on Employer of Record compliance, reducing entity related risk, and maintaining legal oversight across multiple jurisdictions.

Talk to us

Employer of Record platforms ensure compliance by applying each country’s employment laws, statutory benefits, tax rules, and documentation requirements to every employment relationship. As an Employer of Record, Boundless standardises contracts, filings, and record keeping in line with local law. This allows legal teams to support international employees without managing jurisdiction specific regulations directly.

Legal teams can reduce entity-related risk by using an Employer of Record instead of setting up local entities. Boundless acts as the legal employer and assumes responsibility for employment compliance obligations in each country. This helps ensure local legal, tax, and employment requirements are addressed before onboarding begins.

Boundless supports legal oversight by centralising country specific employment rules, documentation, and compliance processes in one system. In country specialists monitor regulatory changes and ensure contracts and filings remain accurate over time. Legal teams gain clear visibility into employment compliance across all jurisdictions where employees are engaged.
