Employer of record in Andorra

by Josep Garcia
What is an employer of record?
In order to work remotely from another country, it is necessary to comply with the laws of the country where the work is carried out. If the company has no office in that country, it is best to use an employer of record (EOR). This intermediary company acts as a legal entity in the country where the teleworker is located, employs the teleworker directly, and takes charge of all the employment, fiscal, and social security formalities.
What are the advantages of using an EOR in Andorra?
Legal and employment advice – you benefit from the experience and knowledge of the EOR, which is up to date with local employment laws and regulations. And you'll avoid the risks and fines associated with non-compliance.
International recruitment
If you are expanding your business internationally, recruiting foreign employees can be complicated if you are not based in the destination country. An EOR can help you remove many of the barriers by taking charge of the legal, administrative, and payroll aspects of recruitment.
A saving of time and resources
You will be able to focus on your core business and on expansion without having to use internal resources for labour management tasks in an unfamiliar country. When you delegate to an EOR, it takes charge of recruitment, payroll, resource management and, compliance with employment law.
Flexibility and scalability
An EOR adapts itself to your business needs in terms of recruitment and head count. This allows you to quickly scale your business up or down without the cost and inconvenience of hiring and firing.
Payroll and benefits management
An EOR is responsible for managing salaries and other employee benefits, ensuring employees are paid promptly and accurately. It also fulfils fiscal and social security responsibilities.
Reduction of employment risks
With an EOR, you will have protection and peace of mind in the destination country because you can be confident the EOR will attend to legal obligations, the payment of taxes, the management of claims from employees, and employment insurance coverage.
In short, by engaging an EOR, you can simplify international recruitment, save time and resources, manage payroll and benefits, and, of course, significantly reduce employment risks and regulatory compliance.
By engaging an employer of record, you will be able to focus on your core business while relying on the experts in workforce management to support all your operations in the country where you place your remote worker.
