Employer of Record (EOR)

Working with an Employer of Record (EOR) is the sensible and safest route for entering the economy of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and dealing with its strictly-applied employment legislation and tax laws.

Hassle-Free Expansion

The Nigerian administration has relaxed some regulations to increase the attraction for Foreign Direct Investment, while Free Trade Zones also provide incentives and exemptions for incoming international companies.
Africa’s largest economy is based on the firm financial foundation of its oil and natural gas exports. However, Nigeria is now widening its economic appeal with a programme of diversification in its manufacturing and industrial sectors. Plus, Nigeria is among Africa’s leading nations for encouraging Start-ups, with over 500 operating by 2022.

But each new markets bring new challenges, and these can be worked through efficiently and cost-effectively with the support of an international Professional Employer Organisation (PEO) such as Bradford Jacobs, especially through our Employer of Record (EOR) framework.

Our EOR services in Nigeria offer our global entity network to companies considering expansion. We become your international employees’ Employer of Record, meaning that we take full responsibility for your employees’:

  • Labour contracts
  • Compliance with Nigerian laws
  • Tax contributions
  • Payroll

As an Employer Of Record, we conclude an agreement with you and the employee who will be working for your company. We become the legal employer of your new workforce. Your company maintains control over the working relationship, work ethics, tasks, and daily responsibilities of your employee.

The most significant benefit of using our EOR services in Nigeria is probably that there is then no necessity for you to set up an entity there. This process can take months, and during this period, it is unlikely that you will have legal resources to pay your employees in Nigeria, resulting in a considerable delay in your Global Expansion plans.

Global expansion is an exciting step that often leads to a growing and successful business, but the red tape in a new country can be demotivating and frustrating. Imagine a way to expand your business without red tape globally and at low costs: that is what working with an EOR can do for you. By letting us take care of the hard part, you can focus on the significant part: expanding your business into Nigeria.

These are the aspects we can take away from you:

  • Registering with the tax and social security office.
  • Immerse yourself in the local laws, customs, and regulations.
  • Get familiar with Nigerian labour benefits and other contract-related customs.
  • Approach potential employees and make them an offer.
  • Setting up the Payroll system compliantly.
  • Submitting wage tax returns and national insurance forms.
  • Staying up-to-date and compliant with changes in Nigerian regulations.
