Other payroll providers may not be what you’re looking for

Don’t let their pretty websites fool you. Other global ‘payroll systems’ are actually payroll aggregators. They stitch together third-party payroll vendors in other countries and manually transmit your payroll files for processing every pay period. That creates errors, delays and limitations.

Here’s what might happen with them:

You have to submit payroll up to 25 days in advance of your next pay run

You can’t pay hourly workers

You can’t natively manage hours, annual leave or expenses

You can’t change your initial pay schedule

You can’t make any changes after you submit payroll

You can’t process equity tax withholdings

You can’t process off-cycle pay runs

GLOBAL HRIS

One HR system for your team everywhere

With Rippling, you can finally bring all your employee data from around the world into a single system. Rippling dynamically localises everything – from fields and documents to currencies – based on work location.

No other HR system can support a global workforce out of the box

Going global with any other HR system is like building a skyscraper with hand tools. It may be possible. It will never be practical. Whenever you expand into a new country, you’ll repeat foundational work, like building custom fields. And to do anything beyond payroll or hiring, you’ll have to continually patch together disparate systems.

Here’s what might happen with them:

You can’t manage your domestic and international workforces in a single system

You can’t manage your employees’ time and attendance in the same system

You can’t build unified reports using both your domestic and international HR data

You can’t manage all your employee expenses, corporate cards and bills in the same system

You can’t view your entire workforce in a single organisation chart

You can’t remotely manage your IT – like devices and apps – in the same system

You can’t customise policies by country

You have to manually assign and manage country-specific compliance trainings

FAQs

What is an Employer of Record (EOR)?

An employer of record (EOR) enables companies to legally hire and collaborate with employees overseas without opening their own local entity in that country, while fully complying with local employment and tax laws. An EOR takes on the responsibility of establishing its own legal entity in a country to hire employees on the client’s behalf. It handles the legal requirements of employment, such as payroll, employment contracts, annual leave, time off and taxes, while allowing you to continue to manage employees’ day-to-day work.

How quickly can I get an employee onboarded?

This can vary depending on the country and pace with which the employees onboards, but Rippling EOR makes it as quick as possible. We have automated most of the process, from automatically generating locally compliant documents to auto-approving 95% of employment agreements.

If I’m managing employees through Rippling EOR in one country, then decide to open a local entity, can I still use Rippling to manage and pay those employees?

Yes. If you decide to open a local entity, you can continue to use Rippling to manage your local workforce, and Rippling Global Payroll to pay them through your entity. We make the switch as easy as possible, and all your data and tools will remain the same.

Does Rippling support immigration?

We offer immigration services backed by top tier immigration advisers, and sponsor immigration visas in many countries. Enquire for more information.
