Expanding your business across borders can be exciting, but it also comes with legal, tax, and HR complications. This is where an Employer of Record (EOR) like DNA Outsourcing steps in to streamline the process.
If you aim to hire international talent without setting up a local entity, then an employer of record solution is your best option. Let’s explore what an EOR does, its benefits, and why DNA Outsourcing is your ideal partner.
What is an Employer of Record?
An employer of record is a third-party organisation that legally employs workers on behalf of another company. While you manage the employee’s tasks and daily operations, the EOR handles all the administrative responsibilities, such as:
- Employment contracts
- Payroll and tax filing
- Benefits administration
- Compliance with local labour laws
This structure enables companies to hire globally without the stress and cost of creating a legal entity in each country.
Why Use an Employer of Record?
Here are the top reasons companies around the world choose an employer of record service:
✅ Fast Global Expansion
With an employer of record, you can onboard international employees in days rather than months. No need to wait for business registration or legal setup.
✅ Compliance Assurance
Each country has its own employment laws. An experienced EOR ensures you remain compliant, avoiding fines, penalties, or legal disputes.
✅ Cost-Effective Hiring
Setting up legal entities, hiring lawyers, and maintaining HR teams in every country is costly. An EOR like DNA Outsourcing reduces these costs significantly.
✅ Focus on Core Business
When you outsource HR and legal complexities to an employer of record, you can focus on growth, productivity, and customer satisfaction.

Real-World Example
Imagine you’re a Dubai-based IT company wanting to hire a skilled developer in South Africa. Without an EOR, you’d need to open a local entity, register with tax authorities, and understand local labour laws. With DNA Outsourcing as your employer of record, you can hire that developer in just a few days, all while we handle compliance, payroll, and benefits on your behalf.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Employer of Record
Is an employer of record the same as a staffing agency?
No. A staffing agency recruits talent, while an employer of record legally employs the workers and handles all backend HR, tax, and compliance work.
Can I still manage the employee’s tasks?
Absolutely. With an employer of record, you retain full control over day-to-day management, while we handle the legal employment relationship.
How quickly can DNA Outsourcing help us onboard international employees?
Depending on the country, onboarding can take as little as 3–7 business days with DNA Outsourcing as your trusted employer of record.
Is it suitable for short-term or project-based hiring?
Yes! Many businesses use our EOR services for contract-based roles, seasonal hires, or testing new markets without committing to a legal entity.
