What is an EOR?
A local employer, without building a local entity first.
An Employer of Record becomes the legal employer for a worker in their country while your business continues to lead the work, performance, and culture.

Runs the local employment route.
The EOR coordinates the agreed local contract, payroll administration, and employment lifecycle support.
Why use an EOR?
Enter a new market with less infrastructure to build.
An EOR can suit a company that needs to employ in a country where it does not yet operate its own local entity or employment administration.
Test a market
Make an early market hire before committing to incorporation and a full local operating structure.
Keep ownership clear
Understand who directs the work and who administers the local employment relationship.
Give finance a route
Make funding, approval, payroll, and reporting handoffs visible from the start.
Who it’s for
For teams hiring across a border for the first time—or the next.
Axis is Poland-first for companies that want to understand a local employment route before they make the hire.
Founders & operators
For businesses making a first market hire without immediately building a local entity.
People teams
For leaders who need a clear local employment path and a consistent employee experience.
Finance teams
For teams that need visible ownership, funding points, and payroll administration context.
How it works
Four steps from hiring brief to ongoing administration.
Each country is reviewed individually. The sequence remains simple: clarify the facts, confirm the route, prepare the employment path, then manage the cycle.
Tell us about the hire
Share the country, worker situation, team size, and intended start date.
Review the employment route
We confirm the direct or local-partner route and identify the legal employer before you commit.
Prepare the local path
Agree the employment structure, documentation, approval points, and onboarding plan.
Run the ongoing cycle
Coordinate the agreed payroll administration, employee support, and employment changes.
Poland / primary market
Local context is part of the operating model.
Employment does not happen in a generic “global” layer. It happens in a real place, through a local route, for a real team.

Questions
Does an EOR replace our management of the employee?
No. Your company continues to manage the role, work, performance, and culture. The EOR coordinates the agreed local employment administration.
Do we need to open a local entity?
An EOR can be considered when you want to employ in a country before creating your own local entity. The right route depends on the country, role, and long-term plan.
Who is the legal employer?
The legal employer is identified in the proposed route and contract. In partner-covered markets, the local partner’s role is disclosed before you commit.
Can an EOR help us hire in more than one country?
Yes, subject to country-by-country review. Axis is Poland-first and coordinates selected other markets through clearly identified local partners.
