Employer of record (EOR) for tax purposes is a service offered by certain companies that allows businesses to outsource the responsibility of payroll, tax, and insurance compliance. The EOR assumes the legal responsibility of being the employer and handles all employee-related transactions such as hiring, onboarding, payroll, benefits, and taxes. This service simplifies the process of managing employees and eliminates the need for employers to be familiar with local regulations or file taxes in multiple jurisdictions. Employers benefit from this service by saving time and money on administrative tasks while ensuring they remain compliant with local labor laws.
