Maximize Efficiency and Growth with an Employer of Record (EOR)
By now, many business owners know that outsourcing HR can save precious time. But few consider the fact that outsourcing can also increase business productivity and raise profit in turn.
Outsourcing HR responsibilities to a third-party Employer of Record (EOR) will streamline your processes and make your business more profitable.
An EOR can help you expand your team worldwide, extending your operating hours while your domestic team is off the clock.
So how does it work?
What is an EOR?
What is an EOR?
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a third-party organization that takes on the legal responsibilities of hiring and payrolling employees for companies hiring globally. There are several responsibilities which an EOR can take off the hands of a company. These include:
- Employment contracts
- Employee termination
- Compliance with local employment laws and regulations
- Payroll and remuneration
- HR services
With the help of an EOR, organizations can contract workers across borders, all over the world, bypassing the need to create legal entities in different countries.
How can working with an EOR help you increase business productivity?
So how can outsourcing with an EOR increase business productivity? Let’s have a look at the main factors.
Less Administration
When a business outsources payroll responsibilities to an EOR, less time needs to be spent working on the administration within the business. While a third-party organization handles HR matters such as recruitment, onboarding and remuneration, you can focus more time on growing your company.
An EOR doesn’t need to replace your HR team either; by giving the administrative responsibilities to a third-party organization, your HR staff have more time to focus on the more strategic aspects of the job, such as training, developing and up-skilling your existing workers.
Smoother Recruitment Process
While EORs don’t have total control over the hiring process – you will still choose which individuals to hire, and which to terminate – they can offer support throughout the hiring and onboarding process. These third-party organizations can share knowledge and help identify ideal candidates from talent pools, helping you to hire the right candidate every time.
Finding the perfect candidates to fit particular roles boosts business productivity by reducing absenteeism and turnover, and the aid of an EOR can ensure you secure talent in candidates who will fit well with company culture.
Hiring Internationally – Global Employee Benefits
Hiring through an international EOR organization allows you to recruit remote workers around the globe who can work across multiple time zones, keeping your business running while your domestic team is off the clock.
Canada is an excellent choice for hiring international remote workers. The country has six different time zones within its borders, and has thus created a workforce that’s acclimatized to working off-hours. Moreover, many Canadian workers find it easy to settle in with both US and UK colleagues based on cultural similarities and shared language, so you won’t be sacrificing company culture by hiring international, remote workers.
Working with an EOR to hire international remote workers who can work outside of the hours of your domestic team extends your operating hours, increasing business productivity.
Working with an international EOR streamlines the process of hiring international remote workers. With a third-party EOR, there’s no need to set up a legal entity in the country you’re hiring in. Plus, hiring with a EOR based in that country means you can rely on local expertise to assure full compliance with region employment law. If you were wanting to expand your business to service customers in North America, for example, then the team at Canadian Payroll Services can help you hire remote workers in Canada.
Creating a Successful Global Team to Increase Business Productivity
Hiring international workers through a third-party EOR saves time, money and stress, allowing you to increase your business productivity with a global team of staff working across multiple time zones to extend your operating hours.
While the employees hired through a third-party report directly to you, you don’t need to worry about the administration and HR processes as these will be taken care of by your partner EOR organization, allowing you to concentrate on your business.
