What is an Agent of Record? An Agent of Record (AOR) is a third party that helps organizations compliantly classify, onboard, and pay contractors worldwide.
Setup time varies depending on the time required for your business to review and sign a Master Service Agreement. Once complete, it usually takes up to 5 days to set up and onboard a contractor to the platform.
There are plenty of AORs that provide contract hiring services. However, most are traditional staffing agencies, leading to longer setup times, higher fees, and time intensive management, which often includes manual approvals and inconsistent reporting. Deel Shield takes traditional contractor hiring to a new level allowing clients to hire and manage contractors globally using Deel entities at record speed (up to 7 days) with zero misclassification risks.
Each Deel Shield contract requires a deposit of one month of a contractor’s payment. Since we have hired the contractor, we are legally obligated to make payments to them even if a client does not pay us. Because Deel takes on all the liability and the indemnification for a contractor, we ask for one-month security of the contractor wages + Deel fee to hold in case of emergency.
Get in touch, and we’ll work to better understand your hiring goals and needs to determine your Deel Shield eligibility. If Deel Shield is a fit for your team:
Our experts will review the contractor’s location, job description, and work setup to determine Deel Shield eligibility. If the business relationship between your company and contractor is not eligible for Deel Shield, we will suggest our available EOR solutions.
