Local Hiring vs. Overseas Deployment: Employer of Record and POEA-Accredited Agencies Under Two Separate Philippine Regulatory Mandates

You don't need a Philippine entity to hire in the Philippines.
Most foreign founders assume an Employer of Record means paying a markup to skip paperwork. It doesn't. It's a legal substitution of employer — Aleph becomes the named employer on record, you keep full operational control of the work.
Swipe through for the parts most proposals leave vague:
→ What actually splits between Aleph and you
→ The Performance Bond, explained in plain terms — refundable in full 60 days after termination, not a fee
→ A real itemized cost breakdown at PHP 40,000 salary, peso by peso
→ Why sourcing for overseas-bound roles has to run through a separate, POEA-accredited partner — and how that pathway works end to end
Eleven years of doing this before "EOR" was a category name. Cebu-based, founder-accessible, statutory contributions billed at cost.
