In this guide, you'll learn how to create a new company, learn what company types are available, and manage companies in Xemplo as an Administrator.

Types of companies

Agency or Staffing Agency handles recruitment and supplies the workforce for seasonal activities or contract projects. The main goal of a staffing agency is to scout talent for long-term or short-term projects.
Admin or Outsourced Payroll Admin makes sure the company payroll process runs smoothly. Admin is defined as any of the tasks necessary to organize the compensation of employees for the hours that have been worked.
Employer of Record (EOR) or Employing Entity handles documentation (contractual), payroll, and tax paperwork submission. An employer of record is responsible for personnel vetting, benefits administration, and contract termination.
