What you need to know?
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a third-party service provider that legally employs your workers on your behalf. While you manage daily work responsibilities, an EOR provider will take over administrative and compliance tasks, such as payroll processing, tax withholding, benefits administration, and compliance with all the local labour laws.
The costs for using an Employer of Record may differ due to provider services and countries, and typically include a monthly fee per employee, which covers administrative services, payroll processing, and compliance. Additional expenses may apply depending on benefits, taxes, or customised support needs.
As an EOR provider trusted by global companies in 85+ countries, Native Teams offers a flexible and transparent pricing structure, depending on your unique business needs. Check our pricing page to see what we offer for your business.
An EOR takes on full responsibility for legal employment matters like payroll, taxes, and compliance, whereas a PEO shares these responsibilities in a co-employment model with the client. EORs are ideal for companies expanding into new regions without setting up a legal entity, while PEOs are better for businesses already operating in a country to optimise HR functions.
EOR providers act as the legal employer, managing payroll, benefits, and employment contracts while ensuring compliance with labour laws. They mitigate risks by assuming liability for employment-related issues and offer HR support, enabling businesses to concentrate on their operations.
Yes, it is entirely legal. Native Teams acts as the official employer in Romania, meeting all regulatory requirements for hiring, taxation, and social contributions.
An EOR allows companies to avoid the complexities of setting up a legal entity in Romania. The EOR handles tasks like payroll and compliance and offers the flexibility to scale operations without the difficulties of dissolving a company if plans change.
There is no legal cap on the number of employees a company can hire in Romania as long as labour laws are followed. The number of employees you can hire depends on your business needs, financial capacity, and the ability to manage your workforce effectively.
