Employer of Record Services: Busting the Myths You’ve Probably Heard

Why Choose an Employer of Record (EOR) Over Independent Contractors?

Aren’t EORs just for big multinational companies?

Not at all. While large corporations use EORs to simplify their global operations, small and medium-sized businesses often get the biggest boost.
Think of it this way: a start-up in Manchester can hire a software developer in Singapore without setting up a local office or navigating complex employment laws. The EOR handles payroll, contracts, and compliance so the business can focus on growth.

Aren’t EORs only a stopgap solution?

They can be – but they don’t have to be. Some companies work with an EOR for a short project or until they’re ready to set up locally. Others keep the EOR model for years, especially if they value the reduced overheads and flexibility. The only limits are set by local employment laws, but a good provider will help you navigate those.
