Best for new markets and small teams

Talk to a Compliance ExpertGlobal employment compliance means following each country's employment rules for everyone you hire there: contracts, payroll tax, social security, benefits, leave, right to work and data privacy. Rules differ by country, so companies hiring abroad must meet them one country at a time.
Worker misclassification, payroll tax and social security errors, contracts that break local labour law, missing right-to-work checks, data privacy breaches and permanent establishment. Each can lead to fines, back taxes or legal claims.
An Employer of Record (EOR) is the legal employer of your workers in a country. It issues local contracts, runs payroll, files taxes and registers benefits under local law. For employees hired through its EOR, Gloroots carries the employment compliance risk while you direct the work.
Worker misclassification is treating someone as an independent contractor when local law sees an employee. It can bring back taxes, penalties and claims for benefits and leave. Authorities look at how the work is done, not the contract label. Gloroots can hire misclassified workers as employees through its EOR.
Not automatically. Permanent establishment (PE) risk depends on what your people do in a country, such as signing contracts or running a fixed place of business. An EOR covers the employment side, but PE is a tax question, so get tax advice for your case.
No. Gloroots carries compliance risk only for employees hired through its EOR. Contractors you engage directly and staff at your own entity remain your responsibility. If a contractor should be an employee, Gloroots can hire them through its EOR.
Gloroots tracks rule changes in each country where it is the legal employer and applies them to contracts, payroll and filings, so you do not have to monitor every country yourself.
Gloroots EOR starts at $199 per employee per month, including contracts, payroll tax filings and statutory benefits. You see the total monthly cost per person before you hire, and all countries share one invoice.
