Employer of Record (EOR) Services

Expanding into new markets should be about seizing opportunities, not getting bogged down in administrative hurdles. With our Employer of Record (EOR) services, you can hire, onboard, and manage a team in Ghana, Sierra Leone, The Gambia, Zambia, and beyond—without the significant time and cost of establishing a local legal entity.

Rakes HR Africa serves as the legal employer for your staff, assuming full responsibility for compliance, while you maintain direct day-to-day management of your team’s work and output.

Why Choose an EOR Model?

Navigating African labor laws and tax systems requires deep local expertise. By leveraging our established infrastructure and 25+ years of experience, you gain:

  • Swift Market Entry: Go from "planning" to "operating" in days, not months.
