Ireland is one of the simplest EU countries for EOR hiring: English-language contracts, moderate employer costs (PRSI of 11.40% from October 2026) and flexible employment law.
The differences between providers show up in pensions (MyFutureFund or an occupational scheme), health insurance and how they pass on Ireland's scheduled cost increases.
- 1
Pension approach
Ask whether employees are enrolled in MyFutureFund or a company pension, and at what employer contribution.
- 2
Health insurance
Private health insurance is a common expectation in Ireland. Check availability and price.
- 3
Cost increases passed on transparently
PRSI rises each October and auto-enrolment rates step up from 2029. Ask how changes are reflected in invoices.
- 4
Agency-work and licensing position
Depending on structure, agency-work rules can apply. Ask how the provider operates in Ireland.
