What is Agility EOR?
Agility EOR is a UK-based Employer of Record platform that helps companies hire and manage international employees without setting up local entities. They provide full legal compliance, payroll processing, tax management, and benefits administration with custom pricing based on your needs and countries.
Agility EOR offers an easy-to-use portal for managing employee onboarding, payroll submissions, and contract changes. They're designed for companies that need comprehensive EOR services for hiring full-time employees globally.
The Agility EOR Problem
Agility EOR is excellent for companies needing to hire employees in countries where they don't have entities. However, if you're a small business or startup that's already working with properly classified independent contractors, Agility EOR's employee-focused platform and custom pricing can be overkill.
You don't need EOR services if your contractors are legitimately independent (working for multiple clients, setting their own schedules, using their own tools). You just need a way to organize contracts, track invoices, manage payments, and stay organized for tax time.
