Once you have clearly defined the services you require from a provider and the standards they must meet, let’s delve into what GEOR offers and the expected results.
- Recruitment and hiring
GEOR manages all recruitment processes: identifying suitable candidates, evaluating their qualifications, experience, skills, and offboarding. Acting as the official employer for your staff, we handle hiring both domestically and internationally. If a hired employee is not a good fit, we will provide a replacement within 10-20 days during the probation period.
Note: PEOs address the issue of staffing shortages, simplify hiring, reduce risks associated with international growth, and allow you to focus on strategic business tasks. However, you remain responsible for some HR, accounting, and compliance tasks.
- PEO for payroll and employee management
We handle all aspects of HR administration and payroll management, including salary payments, benefits administration, tax withholding, and mandatory reporting, as a leading PEO payroll company, allowing you to focus on core business activities.

We calculate overtime, handle taxation, and compliance with legal requirements to ensure adherence to regulations.
- Regular reporting and analytics
We provide current insights into your international workforce through reports and software, enabling you to make informed decisions based on real data.
«The essence of working with any PEO company is that it liberates your company’s resources and saves your time».
- Workforce forecasting
In addition to the previous point, we assist with workforce forecasting to predict staff shortages and secure additional resources to meet all project and plan deadlines.
- Regulatory compliance
We ensure all hiring processes are legally compliant and assume management of associated risks.

What Are the Costs and Are There Hidden Fees?
