WHAT IS AN EOR?
What Is an Employer of Record in Jordan?
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a service arrangement where a local employer employs a worker on behalf of another organization, while the client directs the employee’s day-to-day work.
In Jordan, this means your organization can build a team without first establishing its own local entity, while Hire.BA supports the local employment relationship within an agreed scope.
This page is general information, not legal or tax advice. What an EOR arrangement can cover depends on the organization, the employee, the role and the applicable requirements, and specific obligations should be verified against current authoritative Jordanian sources before being relied on.
