The essentials

What is an Employer of Record?

An Employer of Record (EOR) is a company that takes on the legal employer role in a country where your company doesn't have a registered entity. RPC hires, pays, and manages your team in Honduras under its own legal entity — complying with local labor law — while your company directs day-to-day work and project strategy.

It's one of the most complete forms of HR outsourcing: instead of establishing your own entity and taking on the legal and administrative load yourself, you transfer it entirely to RPC. In some markets this model is also known as a PEO (Professional Employer Organization) — the principle is the same: a local partner that already has the legal infrastructure your company would otherwise have to build from scratch.

It's the model that lets foreign corporations operate in Honduras immediately: without establishing their own legal entity, without hiring directly under an unfamiliar local structure, and without taking on the compliance risk that comes with operating in a market you don't have experience in.

Frequently asked questions

What corporations ask us most

What is an Employer of Record (EOR)?

An Employer of Record is a company that takes on the legal employer role in a country where your company doesn't have a registered entity. RPC hires, pays, and manages your team in Honduras under its own legal entity, while your company directs day-to-day work.

What if my company doesn't have a legal entity in Honduras?

You don't need one. That's precisely the point of an EOR: RPC already has an established legal entity in Honduras, so your company can start hiring and operating immediately, without going through the legal incorporation process, which normally takes several months.

Can RPC manage staff for fixed-duration projects?

Yes. RPC has managed teams of 200+ employees under EOR for infrastructure projects with defined start and end dates, including initial mobilization and orderly workforce demobilization in accordance with Honduran labor law when the project concludes.

How is the cost of an EOR service determined?

As a reference, RPC's service fee as an Employer of Record is up to US$150 per employee per month and decreases as the team grows. This is an indicative, non-binding figure; the final rate is confirmed in a personalized quote. On top of that fee come the employee's salary, mandatory employer payroll contributions (IHSS, RAP, INFOP, statutory benefits), the workplace accident insurance (PPA) and applicable taxes. Every quote is adjusted to the client's actual payroll, the role and the sector.
