What are your options when hiring new employees?
Hire Through a Local Legal Entity
We offer a tailored solution for setting up your local legal entity. Once this legal entity is setup, you will have full power to hire, employ and manage local staff.
Hire Through a PEO solution
For those companies who do not wish to setup and maintain a local entity, we offer a PEO solution which allows you to hire local staff without the administrative and HR burden.
What is an international PEO?
An international PEO or Professional Employer Organization is a global employment solution that enables companies to hire employees fast, efficiently and without the requirement to establish a local legal entity.
Whereby, Biz Latin Hub will contract the employees on your behalf, and will become their legal Employer of Record, allowing you to focus on managing and growing your business.

Frequently Asked Questions
Based on our experience, these are the most commonly questions about an international Professional Employer Organization (PEO) and how Biz Latin Hub can help.
What is Headhunting?
Headhunting, also known as executive recruitment, is a proactive approach to finding talent in the job market. A headhunter or executive recruiter actively searches for individuals who have the specific skills and qualifications to meet a client’s needs.
What is the difference between headhunting and recruitment services?
Headhunting is a specialized form of recruitment that is proactive and often used for executive positions. In contrast, standard recruitment services are more routine and passive, focusing on filling vacancies as they arise.
What is a PEO (Professional Employer Organization)?
A Professional Employer Organization (PEO) is a service provider that allows businesses to hire employees in foreign countries without the need to establish a legal entity in that country. Acting as the ‘Employer of Record’ (EOR), a PEO handles all legal and regulatory requirements, freeing up your business to focus on its core operations.
What is the difference between an EOR (Employer of Record) and a PEO (Professional employer organization)?
The terms Employer of Record (EOR) and Professional Employer Organization (PEO) are often used interchangeably. They both refer to a service that includes recruitment and payroll outsourcing.
Which types of companies are Professional Employer Organizations suitable for?
Professional Employer Organizations (PEOs) are a good fit for companies that wish to hire staff to support their commercial activities in a territory where they don’t have a legal presence. This could be a temporary arrangement while the business is undergoing local incorporation, or a long-term strategy to avoid establishing a legal entity. It’s particularly useful for companies looking to hire a small number of specialist staff, or staff for roles such as sales or representation.
Why should I consider using an Employer of Record?
The main advantage of using an Employer of Record (EOR) is the speed at which you can start working. An EOR allows you to hire staff quickly without having to establish a legal entity, meaning you can start operations as soon as you find the right personnel.
How does the hiring process work through a Professional Employer Organization?
When you hire through a Professional Employer Organization (PEO), the PEO employs your chosen candidate through their local legal entity. They then process the worker’s payment on your behalf, reducing your need to engage in that territory. Your involvement is essentially limited to instructing the PEO when to hire or terminate employees.
Can BLH assist me in finding the right person to hire?
Absolutely. Our experienced recruiters, based across Latin America, have successfully helped many clients find their ideal staff. Typically, it takes between two to four weeks to find a candidate with a specialized profile.
How quickly can a Professional Employer Organization hire?
We generally expect to hire your candidate within a week of being assigned as your Professional Employer Organization, for entry-level positions.
What is the cost of hiring an Employer of Record?
For Employer of Record (EOR) services, we charge a simple monthly service fee per employee, in addition to reimbursement of the total cost of the employee.
Who is responsible for the payment of employee salaries and taxes?
While the client is responsible for providing the funds to cover payroll, employment-related benefits, and payroll taxes in full, as your PEO firm, we handle the administration of wage payments to employees, as well as the payment of employment-related benefits and applicable taxes.
Who ensures compliance with employment laws and regulations?
While the ultimate responsibility for the employees lies with the client, we provide comprehensive guidance regarding employment laws and regulations as part of our PEO / EOR service package.
