“Were we to handle and co-ordinate the whole process in-house, it would add well over $500,000 to our costs each year.

“We process payroll monthly, semi-monthly and hourly across a range of currencies worldwide, and our Finance Manager has complete visibility in a single platform. With Remote, that becomes possible.”
“We partner with 460+ Contractors across the globe. To manage compliance, administration and payroll internally would require hiring five or six full‑time staff. Remote has clearly reduced both the time spent and our costs.”

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Compliance Watchtower is built to assist companies operating across multiple countries that use our Employer of Record, Payroll and HRIS products. The platform delivers broad HR compliance and employment law coverage that includes legal changes, salary updates and benefit alterations, customised to each location's legal framework.
HR compliance means ensuring an organisation follows the laws, regulations and standards that govern how employees are treated in the workplace. It covers many areas, including recruitment practices, workplace safety, wage and hour rules, anti-discrimination measures and data protection.
The aim of HR compliance is to maintain a safe and fair working environment for all staff while shielding the organisation from legal risk and liability. Companies must keep up to date with legal obligations at national, regional and local levels, and put in place policies and procedures that consistently meet those standards.
Effective HR compliance requires ongoing audits, accurate record-keeping and regular updates to policies and processes as legislation evolves. It is a continuous effort that needs sustained attention and adaptation to changing legal requirements and HR best practice.
By making HR compliance a priority, organisations reduce the chance of fines, penalties and legal claims, and foster a workplace culture that helps attract and retain top talent.
Employment law is a broad area of law that sets out the rights and duties between employers and people who provide work. It covers many subjects, including, but not limited to, anti- discrimination protections, labour relations and minimum wage rules. The aim of employment law is to secure fair treatment at work and safe working conditions, while also offering guidance for employers and workers about their responsibilities and entitlements.
A compliance issue can occur when an organisation does not comply with the legal statutes, regulations, standards or ethical practices that apply to its operations.
Examples include breaches of employment law, violations of data protection rules or failures to meet payroll reporting obligations.
Compliance failures may result in fines, financial loss, reputational harm and a negative effect on employee morale and customer trust.
Resolving such matters quickly and effectively is essential to preserve a business's integrity and chances of success.
Compliance Watchtower alerts cover a broad spectrum of employment law changes — including mandatory salary rises, modifications to leave entitlements, altered working hours and updates to health and safety rules. We aim to include all HR and employment law matters that may affect your international workforce.
We convert complex HR and legal updates into clear, practical next steps. Not only do we alert you to changes, but we also explain their impact on your operations and outline the actions needed to keep you compliant, making the process simpler.
We use advanced technology alongside legal specialists to monitor and analyse employment laws in real time across all countries where Remote operates. This enables rapid alerts and updates to appear in your dashboard, helping you stay ahead in maintaining compliance.
Remote supplies compliance updates and recommendations for information only and not as legal advice. If you use Remote HRIS and require deeper clarification, we recommend consulting a legal or HR professional for guidance specific to your circumstances.
If you are a Remote customer using our Employer of Record (EOR) or Payroll service, you can speak with our dedicated legal experts for further guidance and clarification. Our team is available to provide personalised support and fully address your queries.
Compliance Watchtower is included in Remote HRIS, the product that helps companies centralise HR processes for employees worldwide.
Customers can also access Compliance Watchtower updates for countries where they employ staff via Remote's EOR or Payroll services.
