PEO and EOR: What's the Difference?

While these two services are often discussed together, they are not identical. It’s good to understand the differences to choose the one that best suits your company and its needs.  

  • A PEO is a third-party company that offers HR services to employees of other companies. An EOR provides this but also legally hires and is responsible for the employees of the other companies.
  • In a PEO agreement, the contract is made between the PEO provider and the company. In an EOR agreement, the contract is directed by the company but officially remains between the provider and the employee.

INS Global offers both PEO and global EOR services in Mexico to provide the most suitable solution to your specific needs.
