Employer of Record (EOR)

Hire employees in South Africa without opening a local entity.

Outsource-X offers compliant, cost-effective Employer of Record (EOR) services, allowing your business to legally employ staff in South Africa, without the administrative burden.

What Is an Employer of Record?

An Employer of Record (EOR) is a local company that acts as the legal employer for your workers in South Africa. While your business manages the employee’s day-to-day tasks, Outsource-X handles all local employment responsibilities, including:

  • Employment contracts aligned with South African labour laws

  • Monthly payroll and PAYE tax submissions

  • UIF and Skills Development Levy (SDL) compliance

  • Employee benefits administration (including medical aid, pension, and leave)

  • Terminations and dispute resolution support

  • Ongoing HR and compliance assistance

Why Use an EOR in South Africa?

South Africa’s labour laws are complex and highly regulated. Non-compliance can lead to severe penalties, reputational risk, and business delays. By partnering with Outsource-X as your local EOR, you can:

Business Registration

Avoid setting up a South African entity which may involve a higher risk factor and red tape

Recruitment

Compliantly onboard employees within 5–10 business days

Operations

Focus on your operations while we manage HR, payroll, and statutory obligations

Compliance

Stay fully compliant with the Basic Conditions of Employment Act (BCEA), Labour Relations Act, SARS, and other regulations

What Makes Outsource-X the Trusted EOR in South Africa?

In-Country Expertise – Deep understanding of South African labour law, tax, and HR norms

Fast Onboarding – Employees can start work quickly with contracts and payroll ready to go

All-in-One Service – We handle payroll, taxes, benefits, and compliance under one roof

Cost-Effective Expansion – Avoid the time and cost of forming a local company

Local Support – Our South Africa-based team provides responsive, real-time assistance

Who Should Use Our EOR Services?

  • Global companies hiring staff in South Africa without a branch or subsidiary

  • Startups testing the South African market before full expansion

  • Remote-first teams looking to onboard top local talent

  • NGOs and non-profits operating projects or hiring locally

"In remote staffing, success isn’t about where people work, it’s about connecting the right talent to the right role, wherever they are in the world."
