Statutory employer costs in the Philippines are low and capped, so the EOR fee is often the biggest cost. A flat US$599-equivalent fee can add 50% or more to a mid-level salary, which makes Philippines-specific pricing the first thing to compare.
Philippine law also prohibits labour-only contracting, so the provider's DOLE compliance matters.
- 1
Philippines-specific pricing
Ask for local pricing, volume discounts or percentage-based fees. Global flat rates are often poor value here.
- 2
DOLE contracting compliance
Ask how the provider is structured and registered, so you aren't deemed the direct employer.
- 3
HMO cover
Private health maintenance cover is expected by most candidates. Check plan quality and price.
- 4
Night-shift payroll
If your team supports other time zones, confirm night differential and holiday pay are handled correctly.
