Employer of Record (EOR) Services
Hire in Finland without setting up a local entity
Dobra acts as the official employer, so you can focus on leadership and growth. We take care of administration, payroll, and statutory employer obligations – while you get the right talent for your team. Our EOR service is ideal for growth companies, international businesses, and project-based needs.

Dobra’s EOR services make everyday business easier
Employer of Record (EOR) is a service where Dobra acts as the legal employer of your employee. This enables you to hire employees in Finland or expand into new markets without establishing a local subsidiary or registering as a local employer.
Although Dobra is responsible for the employment contract, salary payments, and insurance, the employee remains part of your team and works under your day-to-day direction.
Many global EOR giants are little more than faceless software platforms. Dobra’s strength lies in being a people-first partner.
While technology handles the numbers, we make sure your employee feels welcomed and valued. When they have questions about payroll or benefits, they get answers from a real person – not a chatbot. This is essential for employee commitment, even when Dobra is the one paying the salary.
EOR services make business easier. They are especially suitable for:
- growth companies looking to expand quickly into new markets
- international companies that need a local employer for a specialist working in Finland
- situations where an employee is assigned to Finland without setting up a local legal entity
- project-based needs where creating employer status of your own is not cost-effective
Why choose Dobra as your EOR partner?
1. Speed and flexibility
- You can start operating in a new market or hire international talent in just a few days. You avoid months of waiting and heavy company setup processes.
2. Full compliance with local requirements
- We make sure everything related to the employment relationship – from contracts to taxes and pension contributions – is handled in accordance with local legislation and collective agreements. This helps you minimize risk and avoid surprises.
3. A partnership that makes everyday work easier
- Dobra stands for good working life. We manage the employee lifecycle with professionalism and a human touch, improving both employee experience and commitment.
4. Focus on your core business
- Free up your HR resources from administrative routine work. We take care of payroll, expense reimbursements, holidays, and official reporting on your behalf.
5. Support for recruitment as well
- When needed, we can also support you in finding the right talent and streamlining the recruitment process. This gives you one partner for both employer services and support in hiring international professionals.
