Tiger Recruitment's Comprehensive EOR Process

We start with a consultation to understand your hiring needs

Our process begins with a discovery call to learn about your business goals, role requirements, and timelines. We’ll also discuss jurisdiction-specific considerations, payroll preferences, and employee benefits. This allows us to tailor a solution to your needs and provide bespoke terms for a smooth start.

You choose a hire or we recruit a candidate for you

You can introduce us to your chosen candidate, or we can support you with recruitment. If needed, we’ll shortlist qualified professionals from our talent pool and coordinate interviews. Once a hire is confirmed, we’ll begin gathering onboarding documentation to ensure everything is ready for a compliant start.

We handle compliance, contracts, and onboarding

We take care of all legal and compliance checks, including right-to-work verification, reference checks, and contracts. Our team drafts compliant employment contracts based on the role and location. Once signed, we collect payroll details and formally onboard the employee, keeping you informed every step of the way.

We manage payroll, benefits, and HR admin

Your employee is enrolled onto our payroll system with appropriate deductions and benefits set up. We handle monthly payroll, we offer weekly, bi-weekly or monthly payroll dependent on the overriding standard of the home. We issue digital payslips, manage pension contributions, and oversee statutory leave. We also track holidays, sickness, and resignations—making day-to-day HR administration seamless and fully compliant.

You oversee the employee’s day-to-day – we support the rest

While you manage the employee’s daily responsibilities and performance, we handle everything else in the background. From compliance and payroll to employee queries and offboarding support, our account managers are always available. It’s a collaborative partnership designed to free up your time and minimise risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do you mean by Employer of Record?

An EOR is a third-party organisation that legally employs workers on behalf of another company. While you retain control over the employee’s day-to-day responsibilities, performance, and direction, the EOR takes on the legal responsibilities of employment, including payroll, tax filings, benefits, and compliance with local employment laws. This allows businesses to hire internationally without setting up a legal entity in each country.

What are the three types of PEO?

While an EOR becomes the legal employer of your workforce, managing contracts, payroll, benefits, and compliance on your behalf without the need for a local entity. Professional Employer Organisation (PEO) models function differently and typically require your business to have a legal entity in the country where staff are hired.

The three main types of PEO models are:

  1. Co-employment (Traditional PEO): The PEO and your business share employer responsibilities. You handle day-to-day operations, while the PEO manages HR, payroll, and compliance. A local entity is usually required.

  2. Administrative Services Only (ASO): This model provides outsourced HR support—such as payroll and benefits administration—without sharing any legal employment responsibilities. Your business remains fully liable as the legal employer.

  3. EOR: Often considered a type of PEO service by some providers, an EOR differs in that it becomes the legal employer of record for your workers. This enables you to hire internationally without establishing a local entity, making it ideal for global expansion.

Is EOR legal?

Yes, using EOR is completely legal and widely practised. It’s a compliant way to hire workers without registering a business. An EOR must follow employment laws, including tax, benefits, pensions, and employment rights, just as any local employer would.

Is an Employer of Record a contractor?

No, an EOR is not a contractor. It is a legal employer that employs staff on your behalf. The employees hired through an EOR are not considered independent contractors; they’re fully employed with access to statutory benefits, legal protections, and proper tax withholdings in their country of employment.
