LEADING EMPLOYER OF RECORD SERVICES COMPANY IN GHANA

What is Employer of Record Services?

Essentially, a company that provides employer of record services places a client’s employees on that company’s payroll. The client company still instructs the work of the employees and the employees are still considered workers for the originally hiring company.

The employer of record company would be responsible for payroll, benefits, taxes, and a variety of other human resources and compliance functions. The employer of record services company effectively becomes the employees’ primary employer, but just on paper and for tax purposes.

There are major advantages for small- and medium-sized businesses to use companies that provide these services – as they can help the primary employer stay in compliance with a variety of rules, laws, and regulations which the primary employer may not have the expertise, staff, or bandwidth to support.

Alternatively, a company that does not outsource these tasks would have to manage all human resource services in-house. This includes:

  • Payroll
  • Benefits
  • Tax
  • Data compliance
  • And a variety of other human resource functions
