EOR OR YOUR OWN ENTITY?

One hiring ambition
Two different routes

The right route depends on your activity, time horizon and operating needs

Your next hire

With Outsourcy

Start from the employment need

Your own entity

Build your local operating structure

01Legal employer
With Outsourcy

Employ through the local employer identified in your agreement, with administration within the agreed scope

Your own entity

Your entity employs directly and coordinates its employer obligations with internal or external support

02Setup
With Outsourcy

Service fees and agreed setup or funding requirements
Employment checks and documents before the start date

Your own entity

Incorporation, advice and employer registrations
Your operating infrastructure and administration

03Ongoing work
With Outsourcy

Administration within the agreed scope
Your business retains its own responsibilities

Your own entity

Payroll, filings, records and provider coordination

What if the arrangement changes later?

Contract terms, employee rights and local transition or termination requirements apply. Closing your own entity, if needed, is a separate process. There is no universal headcount at which one route becomes the better choice

BEFORE YOU CHOOSE EOR

Good questions
A clearer next step

Q: We have selected a candidate. What next?

Share the role, work location, proposed salary and preferred start date. We review the local employment arrangement and confirm the requirements

Q: Is recruitment included?

EOR covers the agreed employment and administration scope. If you need candidate sourcing, we discuss that separately and confirm availability and fees

Q: What should the price breakdown include?

Salary, applicable employer contributions, benefits and service fees, plus any setup charges, deposits or prefunding. Your proposal sets out the scope and payment terms

Q: When can the employee start?

We confirm the date after reviewing the market requirements and completing the necessary documents and approvals. Share your target date early so it can inform the plan

Q: Can we move employees to our own entity later?

We can discuss that plan from the outset. Any transition needs a review of local requirements, employee arrangements and agreed terms

Q: What’s the difference between EOR and PEO?

With an EOR, the identified local entity acts as the legal employer under the agreed arrangement, while your company directs day-to-day work

A PEO typically supports HR and payroll for a company with its own local entity, often through co-employment in the US

Terminology and requirements vary by market, so the appropriate route depends on where you already have an entity and the scope of your hiring plans
