What Is an Employer of Record?
Hiring in Canada without a local entity is simpler than it sounds. An employer of record becomes the legal employer of your workers, handling payroll, compliance, and benefits on your behalf.

We handle the rest. Once you’ve identified the person you want to hire, we step in as the legal employer.
We take on the employment
Payroll, taxes, benefits, and provincial compliance all fall on us. You stay focused on the work.
You stay in control
You manage your worker day to day. We just make sure everything behind the scenes runs the way it should.
