01

Introduction.

Contemporary hiring practices have become increasingly remote and businesses are being met with global expansion earlier as they hire from new jurisdictions. Executing payments and handling the expenses of new, distributed employees will require the right tools and systems.

02

What is an EOR and what do they cover?

The classic response to expansion in new regions was a new entity. However, in response to remote practices, the EOR has emerged as an alternative solution. We detail all that an EOR covers in this ebook.

03

The benefits of an EOR vs the benefits of a subsidiary when hiring globally.

Choosing between an EOR and a subsidiary requires an understanding of their difference in functionality. We compare the two in this ebook to make that decision easier.

04

Questions to help you decide whether you need an EOR or a subsidiary.

Once you understand the differences between an EOR and a subsidiary, we’ve compiled a follow-up set of questions to help you choose which solution is right for you.

05

It’s more than a payroll problem.

International payments solutions become extremely important as you expand. Past payroll, new employees will always bring additional non-payroll expenses. How you execute payment and manage these expenses relies on the best systems.
