  • “We’re a publicly listed company, so we needed the stability and reliability of a well-known brand to help us scale; with the support, the roadmap, and the ability to support multiple countries — and handle all the compliance wherever we wanted to hire. Remote immediately ticked all those boxes."
  • "Remote is a very strong partner for us. Onboarding is easy and everything is compliant, from their benefits, payroll, contract and other nuances specific to that particular country. The platform is very easy and straightforward for the new joiners, which wasn't the case with our previous provider. It’s a better experience for our global workforce."
  • “Remote has been instrumental in our growth. It would have been impossible to manage such a high volume of hires internally without their support. They provide the whole package, combined with great account management.”

You need an Employer of Record service if:

  • You don’t have internal expertise in global employment or local partners to ensure compliance.

Still unsure? Find out more about when to use an Employer of Record for your business.

Many Employer of Record service providers rely on third parties in the countries where they operate. Check whether your vendor uses any third-party intermediaries, which can cause delays, inconsistencies, and compliance risks.

Remote owns legal entities in every country of operation and does not rely on third parties, which ensures control, transparency, flexibility, and accuracy for everything from benefits to payroll and support.

An Employer of Record acts as the employer on paper for your employees in countries where you do not have entities. A Professional Employer Organisation (PEO) handles many HR tasks, such as managing payroll and benefits, but the employer is still responsible for managing compliance in each country.
