01 · THE MODEL
– Employer of Record South Africa
Let’s state the facts!
Global EOR businesses in most instances use “in-country” partners to act as the official Employer of Record. These Global EOR businesses are referred to as “aggregators”. They provide a technology platform to which “in-country” partners’ payrolls and HR systems are integrated. This provides a consolidated view of the customer’s global payroll.

02 · WHO EMPLOYS YOUR TEAM?
The contract tells
the real story.
The reality is that the actual “in-country” partner is a different legal entity. An easy way to know this is to check in whose name the employment contract is drafted. At Employer of Record South Africa we believe in dealing directly with our customers – no middlemen. If you are looking at legally employing top-talent in South Africa, there is no-one better than us.

03 · THE COST OF COMPLEXITY4×Global EOR services can cost on average four times more.
Pay for employment.
Not extra layers.
Global EOR services cost on average 4 times more than what we charge, even though they have their own legal entities. This is mainly due to the many additional layers of complexity and infrastructure required by Global EOR providers.
