Our PEO services in Nigeria help companies with onboarding, payroll and other HR-related needs.
With Nigeria PEO services, organisations now have the opportunity to hire employees in Nigeria without establishing a legal entity.
All your new hires and teams can concentrate on your business objectives, while a PEO in Nigeria manages all your human resources, employee benefits, payroll, and tax obligations.
Many organisations have realised that establishing a subsidiary or branch office is not always the best way to employ staff in Nigeria because it is usually a hectic and expensive procedure.
Hence, when expanding your business into a country like Nigeria, then, leveraging a Professional Employer Organisation (PEO) is quicker and more efficient as it can help your business rapidly recover revenue.

A Professional Employer Organization (PEO) is a company that provides employers with outsourced human resources, payroll, benefits, and compliance services.
PEOs act as a co-employer, taking on some of the responsibilities related to the employer-employee relationship such as payroll processing, benefits administration, workers' compensation coverage, and labor law compliance.
By outsourcing all or some of the significant parts of your HR services to a PEO, your business can save more time and money and focus on its core operations.
PEOs can also help businesses stay compliant with Nigerian labour laws and regulations and provide benefits and opportunities for employees that they may not be able to afford on their own.
Through subsidiaries, PEOs sometimes offer international services that help them to legally hire employees on your behalf in accordance with Nigerian labour laws.
What's more, when you hire through a PEO, the compliance burden lies with the PEO. It means that your employees can start working for your company in a matter of days, saving you the time and hassle of managing the recruitment process.
As you expand, it's essential to research and select the right PEO partner that is able to meet your specific business needs and expectations.
It can get confusing to distinguish Nigeria PEO and EoR services. This is because some organisations use both terms interchangeably, owing to their similarities.
In other cases, Employer of Record services are also called “International PEO services” or “Global PEO services”; the keywords being the “International/Global” addendum to shore up on some key differences.
In any case, if you ever get stuck understanding the differences between the two, here’s a table below showing their contrasts:
