"As HR generalists, we needed a breadth of information across each jurisdiction. Boundless was the only EOR we spoke to that genuinely provided that."

Victoria Welham, Head of People, The Up Group

Darren Forsyth, Finance Manager, Code Institute

FAQs

Talk to us

Employer of Record platforms are well suited to fast growing startups because they remove the need to set up local entities. As the legal employer, the EOR manages employment contracts, payroll, statutory benefits, and compliance obligations in each country. This allows startups to expand into new markets without taking on operational and legal complexity early on.

An Employer of Record supports international hiring by handling local employment compliance, contracts, payroll, and statutory requirements. Boundless acts as the legal employer, allowing startups to hire across borders without establishing entities. This enables teams to grow internationally while local employment obligations are managed correctly.

Startups can hire in new countries by using Boundless as their Employer of Record. Boundless becomes the legal employer and manages local contracts, payroll, and compliance requirements in line with local law. This avoids the cost, time, and complexity of setting up and maintaining legal entities.

Early-stage startups can manage international hiring by relying on an Employer of Record to handle employment compliance and payroll operations. Boundless manages payroll processing, statutory benefits, tax requirements, and required filings in each country. This allows founders to focus on building the business while employment obligations are handled operationally.

Employer of Record providers support expansion by standardising employment processes across countries while applying local requirements. Boundless manages contracts, payroll, and compliance as teams hire in new markets. This helps startups expand at pace without adding entity level complexity.
