Thinking of hiring in the Philippines but not ready to set up a local entity? EOR solves your two biggest blockers: trust and speed.

1. You don't have to bet on "is this client legit."

Under an EOR arrangement, the risk isn't absorbed on faith — it's secured. Aleph requires a Performance Bond before any employee is onboarded:

→ PHP 150,000 minimum for 1–5 employees

→ Scales with headcount (up to PHP 1M+ for 51+)

→ Refundable in full within 60 days post-termination

→ Draws only apply on funding failure, insolvency, or uncured breach

That bond means payroll gets funded even if a relationship goes sideways — the employee is protected, and so are you. No entity registration required to get this protection in place.

2. Entity setup takes months. EOR takes days.

Registering a Philippine entity to hire directly means:

→ SEC registration

→ BIR TIN + Certificate of Registration

→ Separate SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG employer registration

→ LGU business permits

Realistic timeline: 6–8 weeks minimum, often longer.

Under EOR, Aleph is already registered (SEC, BIR, SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG) as the legal employer. Once employee documents are complete:

→ Onboarding: 5 business days standard, 3 business days priority

→ Payroll live within the first cycle

→ No entity, no local registration, no waiting on government processing times

The math:

Onboarding fee: PHP 7,500/employee (one-time)

Monthly EOR management fee: PHP 9,500/employee or 12% of gross monthly salary, whichever is higher

Compare that to entity setup costs + 2 months of lost productivity waiting for registration to clear.

For companies hiring Filipino talent without a Philippine entity, EOR isn't a workaround — it's the compliant, faster, and better-secured path from day one.

11+ years doing this in-market. Statutes, not shortcuts.
