Staffing agencies then match these requirements with their pool of candidates. They handle the initial screening process, saving companies valuable time and resources, through to the actual job offer.

As businesses continue to value flexibility, the demand for temporary and contract workers is likely to increase. Staffing agencies will play a crucial role in meeting this demand, providing businesses with the agility they need to thrive in a dynamic market. Many of them, particularly those providing staffing services across multiple territories, are realizing the benefits of opting to work with an EOR partner.
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a third-party organization that acts as the legal employer of a company’s workforce and takes on all essential employer-related and HR management functions on their behalf.) The EOR partner allows a company to hire and engage employees in new countries and territories without having to set up local entities. The EOR hires the employees directly under its visa sponsorship and assumes responsibility for managing the entire employment lifecycle post recruitment which includes - visa processing and onboarding, payroll, statutory benefit management, ongoing HR support and offboarding.
In today’s global marketplace, businesses of all sizes frequently find their teams spread across various locations, which is why staffing agencies often collaborate closely with Employers of Record (EORs). By working with an EOR partner, staffing agencies are able to offer their clients fully compliant employment services across multiple countries and territories, and to organizations with or without a legal entity in those territories. Collaboration with an EOR partner offers staffing agencies a range of benefits, including:
Ensures that all client employees are hired in full compliance with local labor laws, regulations, and visa requirements.

EORs manage employee contracts, benefits, terminations, and other HR-related processes, allowing staffing agencies to focus on their core recruitment business.
