What is an employer of record?
Hiring someone in another country usually means setting up a legal entity, navigating local laws, and figuring out payroll, benefits, and contracts. That takes time, money, and a lot of legal help.
An Employer of Record, often called an EOR, takes that off your plate. They legally employ the person for you, so you can hire internationally without opening an office or setting up a business there.
At Pebl, we act as your EOR service provider. We hire your team members through locally compliant contracts, manage their payroll and benefits, and ensure compliance with local regulations.
You get in-market support, reduced risk, and up to 60% cost savings compared to setting up and running your own entity abroad. It’s a fast, flexible way to build a global team, and your talent gets local benefits, timely pay, and the security of being employed the right way.
An Employer of Record (EOR) helps companies expand into foreign markets without the hassle of setting up a local entity. With Pebl as your EOR, we hire international team members on your behalf using locally compliant contracts.
Our EOR offering lets you operate in new markets and save up to 60% compared to setting up an entity. We handle global payroll, benefits, compliance, and risk mitigation with in-country support. This way, you can hire top talent and grow quickly and affordably in new international markets.

Does an employer of record hire global candidates for me?
Yes! An EOR provider handles hiring new team members for you using local, compliant contracts and becomes the legal employer for those supported employees.
-
Why use an employer of record instead of paying a person as a contractor?
Employee misclassification is a big risk in this case. If you’re managing the employee’s daily tasks or if they’re only reporting to you, they’re likely not a true contractor.
Misclassifying an employee can lead to serious fines and penalties. If you're unsure about someone’s status, working with an EOR service provider helps you hire in a compliant way and avoid any legal headaches.
-
Do you pay/deduct taxes from a supported employee’s payroll?
Yes, we withhold individual taxes monthly and follow all local tax laws in their region.
-
Do you help with paying the required in-country contributions?
Yes, we do. Our monthly invoices include the "employer burden," which covers the mandatory taxes and payments that local governments require employers to contribute to social security and other public programs.
Our local experts stay current on the latest in-country payment rules. They calculate the amounts due based on each employee’s salary and include a detailed breakdown in your invoice so everything is clear and up to date.
-
Do you charge fees for offboarding?
There are no termination fees, but we ask for 30 days’ notice to offboard any supported employee. Keep in mind that some countries have longer statutory notice periods or specific severance requirements, which can differ by law. Don’t worry; our team will guide you through these details.
If you need to offboard a worker, we’ll make sure everything is in line with local severance requirements and termination regulations. Whether it’s a voluntary or involuntary separation, we’re here to help you navigate the country-specific requirements for a smooth process.
-
Do you broker a deal with local partners, or are you involved through the entire employer of record process?
Our customers and supported employees trust our global network of experts. We pair them with a designated customer Account Manager in their time zone who speaks their language and understands their culture.
Pebl's regional teams stay current on local employment law changes and conduct quarterly reviews to ensure accuracy and compliance.
