What is the difference between PEO and Employer of Record Services in Cape Verde?
A PEO (Professional Employer Organization) takes charge of a wide array of human resources tasks, including payroll management, tax compliance, and contract administration. It operates as a strategic HR partner, providing essential support for your workforce needs.
In contrast, an EOR (Employer of Record) bears similarities to a PEO but holds the legal authority to hire and manage employees on your behalf, simplifying the entire process.
With a PEO, the employment contract is directly established between you and the employee, while the PEO firm assists with HR tasks.
Conversely, with an Employer of Record, you maintain control over the employment contract, but it is legally structured between the Employer of Record and the employee, imparting an additional layer of formality and legal validity.
