FAQs

A contractor arrangement may work for independent, project-based work. However, an EOR may be more appropriate when the relationship becomes long-term, the company needs to direct the work closely, benefits are desired for retention, or a business event increases scrutiny. The right model depends on the working relationship and local requirements.
