What is an Employer of Record?
An Employer of Record is a local entity acting as an intermediary between the employee and employer relationship. The EOR is responsible to ensure compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements regarding employment, immigration, and payroll. However, they are not involved with daily work activities.
The EOR is the registered employer for the worker. It does not have any supervisory or management role. The original employer retains the relationship in substance and makes all decisions about compensation, job duties, and termination.
Particularly, the employer of record is the legal entity that:
You can use this registered entity to manage a compliant local payroll in the country

Inform client about termination rules and the notice period.
Is the host country able to act as an intermediary between the government of the employee and the government?

What You Need to Know Before Hiring Someone in South Africa
1994 saw the creation of a ministerial task force by the department of labor to develop new labor legislation. It was first introduced in 1995 as Labor Relations Act 66 and became effective on 11 November 1996.
All employees in South Africa are eligible for employment protection. It also applies to South African citizens of other nationalities. The legislation is often supported by statutory codes that are drawn up by South Africa’s National Economic Development Labor Council (NEDLAC), and non-statutory codes issued by the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA).
These codes of practices are frequently used to provide guidelines to labor courts in determining whether an employer has violated the statutory employment regulations. Collective agreements between employers and trade unions are legal, unlike in other countries.
South Africa does not require a written contract to establish an employment relationship. To protect employees from powerful employers, however, the Basic Conditions of Employment Act (BCEA), requires that the employer provide details about employment before the employment.
An employer should ideally sign a detailed employment contract with their employee. This must include the company’s disciplinary codes. The details must be specific and not just given to the employee as a feigned or uncontextualized way. A comprehensive employment contract is legally binding and benefits both the employer and employee.
Two types of employment contracts exist:
Fixed term contracts : These contracts have a fixed duration and can be extended for a specified period or until completion of a task. Without the consent of both parties, the contract cannot be ended. Full-time contracts are required to be renewed under the laws. Non-renewal will result in the termination of a contract.
Indefinite-Period Contracts: Although the duration of the contract has not been specified, it continues until its termination. Either the employee or the employer can give notice of termination if there is a valid reason. A contract can also be terminated if there has been a fundamental violation of it. The reason for dissolution of an indefinite-term contract can be death on either side.
