The Challenge
In 2014, Sybac Solar began its role as EPC contractor for the construction of Pavana Solar, a 24 MW photovoltaic plant in Choluteca that would become one of Honduras's pioneering utility-scale renewable energy projects.
To execute the project, Sybac needed to rapidly establish and manage a substantial local workforce in Honduras. This included engineers, electricians, skilled trades, general labor, and other personnel required throughout the construction phase.
Our Role
From project mobilization in 2014 through completion in 2015, RPC served as Sybac Solar's Employer of Record in Honduras, employing and managing more than 200 workers assigned to the project.
RPC was involved from day one — not simply processing payroll, but providing the local employment infrastructure required to build and manage the project's workforce.
From Mobilization to Demobilization
As construction concluded in 2015, RPC's responsibility transitioned from workforce administration to workforce demobilization. We managed the closing of the employee lifecycle, including the required employment documentation, settlements, and terminations, in accordance with Honduran labor law.
The result was a complete EOR engagement: from the first hires in 2014 to the orderly closure of the project workforce in 2015.
What this cycle demonstrates
The 2014 → 2015 lifecycle shows exactly what project-based EOR means: enter Honduras, mobilize 200+ people, execute the project, and legally and orderly demobilize the workforce when the project is completed — without the client needing to establish its own legal entity for a fixed-duration engagement.
Timeline per public reporting: pv magazine reported in November 2014 that Pavana Solar was under construction, with Sybac Solar as EPC contractor and completion planned for early 2015. By February 2015, reporting described the plant as Honduras's first large-scale solar park, with operations expected to begin between March and April 2015.
