Frequently asked questions

  • What is a transition service agreement (TSA)?

    A transition service agreement, or TSA, is when the seller agrees to keep supporting the buyer’s new team during an M&A handover. It’s used because moving talent between companies is complex and time-consuming.

    Under a TSA, the seller might keep running HR, payroll, benefits, and accounting until the buyer is ready to take over. That support comes with added cost and delays, which is why many companies look for faster options, like using an employer of record (EOR) to handle the transition instead.
     

  • How does an EOR help M&A deals?

    An employer of record (EOR) can help companies avoid the costly and tedious process of using a transition service agreement (TSA) during M&A deals.

    The EOR replaces the need for a TSA by handling onboarding, payroll, benefits, and HR support for the buyer right away. That means the buyer doesn’t have to depend on the seller—or create new entities—before bringing talent into their organization.

    An EOR also helps ensure compliance during the deal, handling local labor laws in each country and, in some cases, reviewing contracts to protect IP and enforce restrictive covenants. The result: faster talent integration, lower risk, and no TSA dragging out the process.
