The differentiator

What an EOR handles in Jordan

An EOR removes the entity and the payroll machinery. It does not remove your obligations as the people manager.

Legal employer of record● fullThe EOR's local entity is the employer on paper. No entity setup required.
Payroll, tax & social security● fullGross-to-net, statutory withholding and employer contributions remitted locally. Employer social security here is 14.25%.
