What Is EOR

The Legal Employer.
Without the Hassle.

An Employer of Record is a third party that takes on the legal responsibilities of employing your workforce. When you use GTA Staffing as your EOR, we become the employer on paper, handling every payroll, tax, and compliance obligation under the laws of the worker's country.

You retain full day-to-day control over the worker. You direct the tasks, set the hours, and manage performance. We handle everything else: payroll processing, statutory deductions, workplace insurance, employment contracts, benefits, and termination procedures.

It is the fastest, safest way to bring workers on without setting up a legal entity, hiring an HR team, or navigating local employment law yourself.

What We Handle

Everything Off Your Plate

From the first day of work to the last, every employer obligation is managed by GTA Staffing.

Payroll Processing

Accurate, on-time payroll every cycle in any currency. Direct deposit, pay stubs, and records maintained to local standards.

Local Tax and Statutory Deductions

All required deductions calculated and remitted to the relevant tax authority in each jurisdiction, accurately and on schedule.

Workplace Insurance and Coverage

All placed workers covered under the appropriate workplace insurance scheme for their country. In Ontario this includes WSIB registration and claims management.

HR Administration

Onboarding paperwork, personnel records, vacation accrual, statutory holiday pay, and leave management handled to local standards.

Local Labour Law Compliance

Full compliance with the employment standards of each jurisdiction, including hours of work, overtime, termination rules, and notice periods. In Ontario this covers the ESA in full.

Process

How It Works

Three steps from decision to first day of work.

You Identify the Worker

You find the person you want to hire, whether through your own network, a job posting, or through GTA Staffing's placement service. You decide who does the work.

We Onboard Them Legally

GTA Staffing issues the employment contract, sets up payroll, registers the worker under our WSIB account, and handles all compliance documentation before their first day.

You Direct the Work

The worker shows up and does what you hired them to do. You manage their day-to-day tasks and performance. We handle every employer obligation behind the scenes, on every pay cycle.

Who It's For

Built for These Situations

EOR is not a one-size-fits-all product. Here is where it makes the most sense.

Foreign Companies Entering Canada

You want to hire in Canada before incorporating here. Our EOR lets you bring workers on compliantly from day one without registering a Canadian business entity.

Canadian Companies Expanding Abroad

You want to hire talent in another country without opening a foreign subsidiary. Our EOR handles all local employment obligations so you can expand internationally without the legal infrastructure.

Startups Hiring Remote Global Talent

Your team is distributed across borders and you need to employ people compliantly without building a legal entity in every country. EOR gives you a clean, compliant employment structure from day one.

Businesses Scaling Contract Workers

You are growing your contract workforce quickly and need to offload the compliance burden. EOR keeps your headcount flexible without adding HR overhead or misclassification risk, in any jurisdiction.

Avoiding Worker Misclassification

Using independent contractors for roles that look like employment is a growing liability in any jurisdiction. EOR properly classifies and employs workers, removing your exposure to tax authority and labour ministry audits wherever you operate.

Reducing Internal HR Costs

Maintaining a full HR function across multiple countries is expensive. EOR gives you institutional-grade employment infrastructure at a fraction of the cost of building it in-house, with local compliance built in.

FAQ

Common Questions

An Employer of Record is a company that legally employs workers on behalf of another business. When GTA Staffing acts as your EOR, we appear as the employer on the employment contract, payroll records, and government filings. You retain full control of the worker's day-to-day tasks. We carry the legal and compliance responsibility.

Yes, completely. You manage the worker's schedule, tasks, performance expectations, and day-to-day direction. The EOR arrangement only changes who holds the legal employer obligations. Nothing about how the work gets done changes from your perspective.

You notify GTA Staffing and we handle the full offboarding process compliantly under the employment standards of the relevant jurisdiction. In Canada this includes providing appropriate notice or pay in lieu, issuing a Record of Employment, processing final pay, and completing all required documentation. For workers in other countries, we apply the equivalent local requirements. You have no direct termination liability in any case.

With a standard staffing placement, GTA Staffing finds the worker for you. With EOR, you may already have the worker in mind. Our EOR service is about taking on the employer obligations for a worker you have already identified: someone you found yourself, a former contractor you want to bring on properly, or a hire from another source.

Pricing is based on the number of workers, the nature of the engagement, and the services required. We provide a custom quote for every client. Contact us to discuss your situation and we will put together a transparent proposal with no hidden fees.

Yes. Transparency is required by law. Workers sign an employment contract with GTA Staffing and receive their pay stubs and T4 under our name. The arrangement is disclosed at onboarding. In practice, most workers understand the distinction between their legal employer and the business they perform work for every day.
