Section 1

What Is an Employer of Record (EOR) in Poland?

An Employer of Record in Poland hires employees locally on your behalf so you can access Polish talent without immediately building your own local employer structure. You direct the role and day-to-day work, while the EOR manages local employer administration.

What Farlinko covers

  • Useful for engineering, operations, and support hiring in Central and Eastern Europe.
  • Helps reduce the local payroll and onboarding burden for first hires.
  • A practical bridge between market entry and a later owned-entity decision.
Section 2

How to Hire in Poland Using an EOR

A simple implementation flow you can share with hiring, finance, and legal teams.

Step 1 Define role, city, and package

We align on salary, benefits expectations, location, and any role-specific package considerations before local documents are prepared.

Step 2 Prepare local employment documentation

Farlinko supports local documentation and onboarding workflows aligned with Polish employer administration requirements.

Step 3 Complete onboarding and payroll setup

We coordinate employee records, payroll inputs, and recurring setup so the employment relationship starts cleanly.

Step 4 Run payroll and recurring employer workflows

Polish payroll is generally monthly. We support payroll administration and routine local employer workflows.

Step 5 Manage changes and exits through a local process

Compensation changes, leave, and exits should still be handled through a clear local workflow to keep documentation and process aligned.

Benefits of Using an EOR in Poland

Section 4

How Much Does It Cost to Use an EOR in Poland?

How pricing is usually structured

Poland EOR pricing is usually quoted as a flat monthly fee per employee, with the final quote shaped by salary, benefits scope, and the complexity of the support model.

For first hires in Poland, EOR is often a cleaner route than immediately building a local employer structure, payroll operation, and recurring administration stack.

  • Most common: flat monthly fee per employee
  • Sometimes used: payroll-linked pricing
  • May be separate: specialist benefits support, unusual allowances, or more complex HR support

What's included
