Employer of Record
Due to its favourable tax and strong regulatory environment, Bermuda is a popular destination for international business. However, locally domiciled companies who wish to take on employees must be licensed by the Bermuda government, comply with the Employment Act, register with the Bermuda Immigration Department, and assume responsibility for obtaining work permits for any non-Bermudian members of staff.
Who we can help
Does your company’s strategic future involve hiring employees in Bermuda but you lack an incorporated entity on the Island to facilitate your expansion plan?
Are you an individual seeking to provide solo consulting services to a Bermuda client and in legitimate need of a work permit?
If the answer to either of the above is Yes, we may be able to help.
What is an EOR?
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a third-party organisation (us) that legally hires and employs workers on behalf of another company. While the EOR is the official employer and handles the legal, administrative and compliance burdens, the client company (you) retain full control over the employee’s day-to-day work, duties and performance.
Using an EOR allows companies to hire top international talent without the significant time and expense of setting up a legal corporate entity or subsidiary on the Island. It also protects you from legal pitfalls as EORs are experts in local staffing laws and associated regulatory requirements. Additionally, it can enable faster onboarding because we are familiar with what has to be done and how to achieve this most efficiently.
How it works
On paper, the EOR is the official employer. We issue the employment contract, process payroll, handle applicable deductions (such as payroll tax, social insurance) and administer mandatory benefits (for example, medical and life insurance) according to local Bermuda laws.
You retain powers of direction over the activities of the employee, manage their workload, set their daily schedule, and make all business-related decisions concerning the nature and execution of their responsibilities.
Pricing is based on costs incurred on your behalf plus our professional fees for providing this service.
