Employer of Record

An Employer of Record (EOR) is an organization (4Geeks in this case) that serves as the employer for tax purposes while the employee performs work at a different company.

The Employer of Record takes on the responsibility of traditional employment tasks and liabilities.

Specifically, the employer of record is the legal entity that:

  • Arranges all visas and work permits for the employee, avoiding delays or refusals
  • Provides a registered entity for running a local, compliant payroll inside the country
  • Meets all host country labor laws pertaining to local contracts and worker protections
  • Advises the client of required notice periods, termination rules and severance pay
  • Is the host country interface between the employee and government authorities
