The main difference between HR Management and Employer of Record (EOR) plans on the Outstaffer Platform is who the legal employer is and the support we provide.

HR Plans are for Direct Employees who are hired by your company using your own legal entity. These plans are great for businesses that already have a legal entity in the employee’s country but need a platform to hire, onboard, equip, and manage employees across APAC.

EOR Plans are for EOR Employees, where Outstaffer is the legal employer on your behalf. This is perfect for countries where you don’t have a legal entity or when hiring temporary staff. Outstaffer takes care of HR compliance, local payroll, taxes, and benefits for employees across APAC, making global workforce management easier.

The Outstaffer Platform is very flexible, with each plan linked to an individual employee, allowing you to mix and match plans based on your needs. For example, you can use HR Core Plans for 25 direct employees in Australia (where you have internal HR or don’t need extra HR support), the HR Premium Plan for 5 direct employees in Singapore (where you need a dedicated HR manager to support your team), and our EOR Plans for 10 employees in the Philippines (where you don’t have a legal entity).

This flexibility gives you full visibility and makes it easier to handle workforce management across different countries and types of employment.

At Outstaffer, there are no platform, onboarding, or setup fees for our HR Management, Employer of Record (EOR), and Contractor Management products. You only pay for the services you need, and only once you hire an employee or contractor through the Outstaffer platform, as each subscription is tied to the individual hire. Our platform and tools, including the Employment Cost Calculator, are completely free to use.

Subscription fees start at USD $15 per month for a direct employee (employed by your company) and go up to USD $600 per month for an EOR employee (employed by Outstaffer on your behalf through our legal entities). While we strive to maintain consistent pricing across all covered countries, fees may vary due to cost differences by location. For example, hiring in Australia is more expensive than in Philippines or Vietnam, and our pricing reflects these differences.

For EOR Plans, fees are added to the Payroll charges, which include the base salary, any bonuses or allowances, plus statutory entitlements or health insurance. Payroll charges are automatically calculated by the Outstaffer platform, ensuring full compliance with local labor laws. We do not take any margin on payroll, ensuring complete transparency.

Discounts are available for annual agreements. Contact our sales team to learn more and find the best solution for your business.

With Outstaffer.com, you can easily add and invite direct employees, EOR employees, and contractors with no minimum requirements or fees.

To provide our dedicated HR Manger for direct employees with our HR Premium product, a minimum monthly fee applies, equivalent to the cost of three employees per month.

Whether you’re hiring your first employee or scaling to 1,000, Outstaffer is here to help you grow.

Outstaffer supports the following currencies: AUD, USD, INR, PHP, SGD, VND, and MYR.

If your business is located in Australia, we will bill you in AUD. If your business is located outside Australia, you will be billed in USD.

We pay employees in their local currency directly into their local bank accounts, supporting payments in AUD, USD, INR, PHP, SGD, VND, and MYR. This ensures seamless payroll management and compliance across different countries.

EaaS stands for Equipment-as-a-Service, and it’s a solution offered by Outstaffer to provide fully managed, business-grade devices to your employees. Instead of purchasing and managing devices on your own, you can subscribe to Outstaffer’s EaaS, where we handle everything from device setup and delivery to security, management, and support.

Here’s how it works:

• Choose a device from our range of secure laptops designed for different roles (everyday tasks, power users, developers, etc.).
• Outstaffer pre-configures the devices and handles all logistics, including shipping and customs, ensuring they arrive ready to use.
• We provide remote device management, which means we can lock or wipe data from lost or stolen devices.
• Devices come with SOC 2-compliant security, and you get 24/5 IT support for troubleshooting.
• We also handle device recovery, replacement, and upgrades, ensuring your equipment is always up-to-date and fully functional.

EaaS allows you to equip your employees quickly and securely, with minimal effort on your part, while Outstaffer manages the entire lifecycle of the devices.

Outstaffer Equipment-as-a-Service (EaaS) offers a secure and easy way to equip your employees. When employees use their own devices, it’s difficult to ensure they have the right security measures. Personal devices might lack protections, making it harder to control access to sensitive company data. Outstaffer’s devices come with SOC 2-compliant cybersecurity protection, ensuring your information stays safe.

Shipping your own company devices internationally can cause delays of 3-4 weeks or longer, with added customs duties, taxes, and potential customs clearance challenges. Your employee or a company representative may need to handle this process, adding time and complexity. With Outstaffer’s EaaS, we take care of all logistics, including shipping, customs, and compliance, so your employees receive their devices quickly and without delay.

Outstaffer’s EaaS typically delivers devices within around 2 weeks, fully pre-configured and ready to use. We offer remote device management, allowing us to lock or wipe data from lost or stolen devices, ensuring complete security. Outstaffer handles device recovery and provides 24/5 IT support, ensuring that your employees are supported and your company data is protected.

Using Outstaffer’s EaaS eliminates the worry about security risks, customs challenges, or device management. You can focus on growing your business while knowing your employees are equipped with secure, fully managed devices.

To use EaaS, you must have an employee on an HR Plan or EOR Plan. Billing is done monthly for each device as an add-on to your HR or EOR Plan subscription, with the cost depending on the type of device chosen and the subscription term.

• On HR Plans: The EaaS subscription is tied to your company. If an employee leaves, Outstaffer will handle device recovery, and you can easily reallocate the device to another employee. If a device is lost, stolen, or damaged, your company will be billed for a replacement. Depending on the local labor laws in your country, you may be able to recover the cost from your employee. We recommend having a policy in place to cover these costs, or you can upgrade to HR Premium, where a Dedicated HR Manager can help you create this policy.
• On EOR Plans: The EaaS subscription is tied to each individual employee. If an employee leaves, Outstaffer will recover the device and attempt to reallocate it to another employee within your company. If your company doesn’t need the device, it can be reassigned to another company. If a device is lost, stolen, or damaged, Outstaffer will try to recover the cost from the employee’s salary or entitlements (subject to local labor laws). If the full amount cannot be recovered, your company will be responsible for the remaining cost.

This system allows Outstaffer to manage your devices efficiently, offering flexibility while ensuring that all equipment is handled securely and in compliance with local laws.

Outstaffer keeps your devices safe with strong security, using SOC 2-compliant cybersecurity to protect your company’s data. Each device is set up with tools like data encryption and secure access controls to make sure only the right people can use it. If a device is lost or stolen, we can lock or wipe it remotely to protect your information.

Outstaffer also protects your Intellectual Property (IP). We make sure only approved employees can access important data, company software, and confidential information. Our system tracks and manages what happens on each device to prevent leaks or security risks.

With EaaS, Outstaffer also handles the physical security of the devices. If an employee leaves, we make sure the device is safely returned and wiped clean. This reduces the risk of data falling into the wrong hands. Outstaffer also offers 24/5 IT support to help with any issues.

In short, Outstaffer protects your data and IP, both digitally and physically, keeping everything safe and secure.
