Own entity or local partner
An EOR either employs your hire through its own local company or through a partner it contracts. With its own entity, the provider controls payroll and compliance directly; with a partner, a third company is the legal employer.
Swapp Agency publicly documents its own employing entity in 1 country (Sweden).
Multiplier publicly documents its own employing entity in 2 countries (India and Canada).
Only entities with a public source (a registry record or the provider’s own legal documents) are counted. A provider can have more entities than it publishes.
