What is an Employer of Record?

An Employer of Record (EOR) is a company that takes on the legal responsibility of employing workers on behalf of another business. This means that instead of setting up a legal entity in a foreign country, businesses can use an EOR to handle all employment-related tasks.

When you hire through an EOR like Native Teams, your employees work directly for you, following your instructions and company policies. However, from a legal standpoint, the EOR is their official employer. 

What are the costs of using an Employer of Record in Georgia?

The cost of using an EOR in Georgia varies based on factors like the number of employees and the services required. Native Teams offers transparent and flexible pricing. For detailed information, please visit our pricing page.

What is the difference between PEO and EOR?

A PEO (Professional Employer Organisation) co-employs workers with the client company, requiring the business to have a local entity and share HR responsibilities. 

An EOR (Employer of Record), on the other hand, serves as the full legal employer on behalf of the company, allowing businesses to hire in Georgia without setting up a local entity. 

What are the responsibilities of an Employer of Record (EOR)?

An Employer of Record (EOR) takes on all the legal and administrative responsibilities of employing workers on behalf of a company. This includes drafting and managing employment contracts to ensure they comply with local labour laws. 

The EOR is responsible for processing payroll, calculating salaries, deducting taxes, and ensuring that employees are paid on time in accordance with Georgian regulations. Additionally, the EOR handles tax filings and compliance with social security contributions, making sure that both the employer and employees meet all their legal obligations.

Beyond payroll and taxes, an EOR also manages employee benefits, ensuring that workers receive all mandatory benefits such as health coverage, pensions, and paid leave. 

Is using an Employer of Record in Georgia legal?

Yes, using an EOR in Georgia is a legally recognised method of employment, given that your EOR service provider complies with all local labour laws. At Native Teams, we ensure that all employment practices adhere to Georgian regulations, providing a secure and compliant hiring solution.

Why should I use EOR instead of opening my own company or an office in Georgia?

Opening your own company or office in Georgia requires going through a complex process that involves legal registration, setting up payroll, handling taxes, and complying with local employment laws. This can take a lot of time, effort, and money, especially if you are expanding into a new market.

Using an Employer of Record (EOR) makes hiring in Georgia much easier. With an EOR like Native Teams, you don’t need to set up a local entity. We handle everything for you—employment contracts, payroll, taxes, and legal compliance—so you can focus on running your business. Your employees work for you just like they would if you had your own entity, but we take care of all the administrative and legal responsibilities.

There is no specific limit. Native Teams allows you to hire as many employees as your business requires, ensuring compliance with local regulations. We support your growth and expansion.
