EMPLOYER OF RECORD FROM $199/MO.

An employer of record is a third-party organisation that legally employs workers in a country on your behalf. The EOR signs the employment contract, runs payroll, withholds taxes, administers statutory benefits and ensures compliance with local labour law, while you direct the employee’s day-to-day work. EOR services let you hire in a country where you have no legal entity.

A PEO (professional employer organisation) co-employs workers inside your existing legal entity, almost always in the United States. An employer of record fully employs workers on your behalf and is the sole legal employer in countries where you have no entity, which makes EOR the standard option for international hiring and PEO the standard option for US-only HR outsourcing.

Remote People onboards new hires in 24 to 48 hours in most countries. The candidate receives a digital invitation, uploads identification and banking details, and signs a locally compliant employment agreement. We file the relevant tax and social-security registrations on the same business day.

Our EOR services include locally compliant employment contracts, monthly payroll and tax withholding, statutory benefits administration, supplemental benefits, HR support, expense reimbursement, equipment leasing, visa sponsorship where available, IP assignment and termination management. All delivered through one platform with a dedicated account manager.

Remote People EOR pricing starts at $199 per employee, per month, flat. Competitor pricing typically runs $500 to $700 for the same scope. The fee covers all employment administration. Salary, statutory employer contributions and any optional supplemental benefits are billed at cost with full transparency.

Remote People, through our owned local entity in each country, is the legal employer for tax, payroll and compliance purposes. Your company retains full control of day-to-day work, performance management, promotion and compensation decisions.

EOR can be a permanent solution. Most countries place no statutory limit on EOR duration, and many of our clients have employed teams through EOR for years. When you outgrow EOR, we help you incorporate locally and transfer employees with zero compliance gaps.

For most operational roles, no. Because the employee is contracted to our owned legal entity, work performed in their country does not typically create permanent establishment for your business. We flag any role, usually sales-facing or contract-signing, that could create PE exposure before you hire.

EOR employees receive every statutory benefit required by local law: public health coverage, pension contributions, paid leave, parental leave and severance accruals. We also offer optional private health insurance, retirement plans and stipends in 60+ countries.

Our HR team manages every termination in line with local labour law, calculating final pay, severance, notice periods and gardening leave, and producing the legally required separation documents. We carry the full risk of any wrongful-termination claim.

Most EOR providers require a security deposit equal to one full month of payroll plus statutory contributions, which can tie up significant working capital for senior hires. At Remote People the security deposit is capped, so your exposure stays predictable even when you employ higher-salary roles.
