What is HR outsourcing?
HR outsourcing means handing human resources work, such as recruiting, payroll, benefits, and compliance, to an outside provider instead of an in-house HR team.
Managed HR services usually take over HR for the staff you already have. Remote Employee® works differently: we’re the employer of the team you hire through us in the Philippines, so the HR side comes with every hire.
How an employer of record works
What we handle
- Recruiting: we find and screen candidates for the role.
- Onboarding: the contract, setup, and a desk in our Class-A offices.
- Payroll and taxes: salaries, withholding, and government contributions every month.
- Benefits: medical benefits, perks, and team events.
- Compliance: Philippine labor law, employee records, and HR policies.
- Replacements: if a hire isn’t the right fit, we replace them for free.
