Frequently Asked Questions

Will Workforce Africa hire our expat candidates for us?

Yes. Workforce Africa will onboard your candidates (including expats) and issue them compliant employment contracts. Workforce Africa therefore becomes the Employer of Record for your expat foreign employees.

We are yet to source the right candidates for our African operations. Can you recruit talent for us?
Yes. We can source top and quality talent for your operations in any African country. You however get to choose the best fit talent for the role​
Is an Employer of Record(EoR) same as International Payroll outsourcing?
An organisation may outsource the payroll function for its foreign subsidiary. This however does not relieve it of its compliance duties. With an Employer of record (such as Workforce Africa) on the other hand, the Employer of Record is responsible for payroll and other compliance requirements​
If I already have a registered local entity, can I switch to an EoR like Workforce Africa?
Absolutely. In our experience, switching from a local legal entity, to a PEO/ Employer of Record, saves you cost and lets you focus on more strategic activities.​
Will Workforce Africa pay/deduct all necessary taxes and benefits for employees?
Yes. As the Employer of Record. Workforce Africa withholds all payroll taxes monthly and administers relevant employee benefits (such as insurance and pension contributions) in compliance with all applicable laws.​
Does the client retain control of its workforce when engaging Workforce Africa as an EoR?​
Yes. Workforce Africa only becomes the Employer of Record that is responsible for employment compliance management. However, the Client on a daily basis oversees the operational activities of the employees​
How will the employees get paid in an EoR arrangement?
Workforce Africa, as the employer, is responsible for staff salary payment, benefits administration and taxes withholding. The Client is billed once in a month for all these payments and the PEO’s management fee​
What is the difference between EoR and staff leasing?
The major difference between PEOs and staff leasing is in the relationship between the Staff and the Client. With a PEO, there is an ongoing relationship between the Staff and the client company. The PEO becomes the Employer of record. In Staff leasing, the employee is leased to the client company, usually on a temporary basis. The Staff’s relationship with the staffing company is usually ongoing.​
