What is an Employer of Record (EOR)?
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a third-party organization that acts as the legal employer on behalf of a company. While the client company retains full control over the employee’s day-to-day responsibilities and performance, the EOR assumes all employment-related obligations, including employment contracts, payroll processing, tax reporting, and compliance with local labor laws.
This structure creates a clear separation between operational control (client) and legal responsibility (EOR). As a result, companies can hire employees in foreign markets without establishing a local entity, reducing administrative complexity, legal exposure, and time to market.
How Employer of Record (EOR) Works
The Employer of Record (EOR) model follows a structured and compliant employment process:
- The client company identifies and selects the candidate
- The EOR becomes the official legal employer of the employee
- Employment contracts are issued in accordance with local labor regulations
- The EOR manages payroll processing, income tax (PPh 21), and statutory contributions such as BPJS Kesehatan and BPJS Ketenagakerjaan
- For foreign employees, the EOR facilitates work permits and visas (KITAS)
- The client company manages the employee’s daily tasks, performance, and deliverables
This model ensures that all legal, tax, and compliance responsibilities are handled locally while the client focuses on business operations and growth.
