Frequently Asked Questions

A GCC Employer of Record (EOR) is a company or organization that acts as the official employer for a worker or group of workers in the GCC, even though the workers may be performing services for a different company or organization.

The GCC EOR is responsible for hiring, paying, and managing the employees, and for complying with all relevant employment laws and regulations. This arrangement is often used when a company or organization wants to outsource certain HR functions or when it wants to hire workers on a temporary or contract basis or overseas.

The GCC Employer of Record takes on the legal and administrative responsibilities of the employer, while the worker performs the duties and responsibilities of their job as usual. The EOR may also provide benefits and support services to the workers, such as mandatory healthcare coverage and orientation into the GCC region.

The GCC is a political and economic alliance of six countries in the Middle East: Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). A GCC Employer of Record can help companies achieve compliance by handling all employment-related tasks and responsibilities on their behalf.

One of the key benefits of a GCC Employer of Record is that they can handle the post hiring and onboarding of employees in the GCC region.
