FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
EOR
in Colombia.
An Employer of Record legally employs a worker in Colombia on behalf of a foreign company. Your company directs the employee’s day-to-day work while the EOR manages the local employment contract, payroll, statutory benefits and compliance.
Yes. A foreign company can use an Employer of Record such as Globedesk to employ people locally without first establishing its own Colombian legal entity.
Globedesk EOR pricing starts from $325 per employee per month. The complete employer cost also includes the employee’s salary and applicable Colombian employer contributions and benefits.
The total cost typically includes base salary, employer social security contributions, mandatory benefits such as prima and severance payments, payroll administration, and compliance requirements under Colombian labor law.
Timing depends on the employment terms and documentation, but an EOR removes the much longer process of establishing a local entity. We provide a clear onboarding plan for each hire.
Your company manages the role, priorities, performance goals and daily work. Globedesk manages the local employment relationship and supports both your company and the employee.
As your EOR partner, Globedesk manages all statutory employer obligations:
