What is an Employer of Record (EOR)
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a service provider that allows companies to legally hire and work with employees in foreign countries without establishing their own legal entity in that country. This is made possible through a legal arrangement where the EOR establishes its own legal entity in the country and hires employees on behalf of the client company. This arrangement offers a viable solution for companies that wish to expand their global reach without investing in setting up a legal entity in every country where they operate.
About the Role
As an HR Advisor, you will play a pivotal role in supporting Rippling ’s Employer of Record (EOR) service across APAC.
