For years, Employer of Record services have played a vital role in helping organizations simplify international employment. These services made it easier to hire and manage employees in foreign markets by acting as an employer for legal compliance, payroll, and benefits in overseas markets.  

But as business keeps changing, so should our take on how to manage a global workforce. Here is where our Entity Solutions come in the picture: a progressive model that changes how organizations engage and manage their international teams. 

The EOR model has undoubtedly been a widely used solution, offering a streamlined way to handle global employment and compliance. However, as organizations scale, they may encounter higher costs and limited opportunities for direct revenue generation or control over employee relations. 

In contrast, Entity Solutions provide an alternative by establishing a local presence within the market. This approach allows organizations greater control over their international teams and operational costs, facilitates potential revenue generation, and enhances employee engagement. Entity Solutions offer a scalable and sustainable way to manage a global workforce, complementing the existing benefits of EOR models and addressing some of the challenges associated with rapid growth. 

Understanding the Compliance Challenge 

Global expansion opens doors to new markets but also introduces a web of regulatory requirements specific to each country. Each jurisdiction has its own set of tax obligations, employment laws, data protection regulations, and environmental standards. For multinational companies, staying compliant across various jurisdictions creates a complex, sometimes overwhelming burden for the administration and leadership. 

Key challenges include: 

  • Diverse Regulations: Different countries have unique compliance requirements. What is permissible in one country might be restricted or completely forbidden in another. At times, even minor changes in administration can lead to further adjustments in certain tax policies, making it crucial for multinational companies to stay updated. 
  • Constant Change: Regulatory landscapes are continually evolving. Keeping up with changes and ensuring compliance requires constant vigilance. Employment regulations vary widely between countries and are subject to frequent revisions. These laws can cover areas such as worker rights, minimum wage, overtime pay, and termination procedures. 
  • Complex Documentation: Compliance often involves a lot of paperwork and documentation, which can be time-consuming and prone to errors. For example, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), enforced in the European Union, imposes strict requirements on data protection and privacy, necessitating meticulous adherence to extensive documentation and processes. 

How Entity Solutions Makes Compliance Simple 

Our Entity Solutions services are designed to address the challenges listed above head-on.  

Here is how we simplify global compliance:
