Frequently asked questions about PEO services

What does PEO (Professional Employer Organization) mean?

In the PEO model, an EOR (Employer of Record) is the registered employer of the workers and takes on all the legal responsibility, giving the customer company opportunity to focus more on its core business.

As an example, the employee can be either a Finnish employee living in Finland who works remotely for your foreign company or your foreign candidate whom you want to place to work in Finland for a specific project. If your company intends to establish a permanent office in Finland, while establishing the office, your employees can already work for you through Econia's PEO services.
