global workforce optimization
Simplify and strengthen your global workforce operations
Optimize how you hire, manage, and pay your global workforce with one powerful partner that can simplify your operations, improve efficiency, and ensure cost-effective international employment practices.
Find workforce efficiencies
Ensure you’re hiring and paying employees in the most cost-efficient way and and relieve stressed HR and finance teams who are trying to manage complex international issues.
Overcome acquisition bloat
Ensure employment transitions run smoothly, wages in new countries are compliant, and workforce solutions are cost effective. We can even help you shut down underused entities and transfer employees to an employer of record (EOR) solution.
Centralize your worker data
Get one secure location to store employee documents and use a single platform for all international employees, whether they’re freelancers, hired via EOR, or employed by your legal entity.
Get visibility across your global team
Access analytics that help you understand your workforce and explore personalized recommendations for new countries to expand into.
Optimize your global workforce
Global growth often leaves organizations with a tangled web of international entities, vendors, and disjointed systems. Companies find themselves spending on unnecessary overhead, lacking visibility into their global workforce, and exposed to compliance risks.
Safeguard Global enables fast, compliant hiring and operations through EOR services, legal entity setup and management, payroll, outsourced HR, and more. Get one single partner with proven expertise and the ability to hire employees on your behalf in nearly 190 countries.

Problem: Unnecessary entities
Restructurings and strategic shifts can leave you with costly entities in countries where you only have a few employees.
Solution: Close down entities and transfer employees to an EOR
Our experts can help you wind down dormant and low-activity entities and transfer employees to our EOR solution, which can help you save resources and lower ongoing expenses.
Centralize workforce processes
Problem: Fragmented systems
Multiple HR, payroll, and finance systems for employees around the world create complexity, poor data visibility, and high compliance risk.
Solution: One unified system
Simplify onboarding with a secure platform that prompts you for country-specific documents from new employees; conduct payroll operations around the world; or outsource your HR needs to a single partner with the experience to help you from end to end.
Get valuable workforce data
Problem: Low visibility
Leaders often lack tools that help them analyze their workforce across countries, understand international headcount, or formulate strategies.
Solution: Stop flying blind
Get the data you need to form workforce strategies with dashboards and analytics that show worldwide employee counts, monthly payroll costs, and other workforce data.
Remove compliance blind spots
Problem: Staying compliant in foreign countries
International expansion introduces unfamiliar regulations, misclassification risks, and local nuances in doing business — and a single compliance misstep can derail expansion with potential financial penalties and reputational damage.
Solution: Rely on the experts
Our experts handle local labor laws, taxes, contracts, and regulatory filings — as well as provide proactive guidance and peace of mind.
Relieve stressed teams
Problem: Strained resources and employees
Post-acquisition, international employees may struggle with inconsistent HR policies, inefficient processes, and feeling disconnected from the core business. Teams may spend too much time coordinating with vendors and troubleshooting complex overseas issues.
Solution: Outsourced HR
Benefit from our 17 years of experience helping businesses navigate complex, multinational challenges and ensure your team members have a local HR point of contact in their language and time zone.
Free up strategic thinkers
Problem: Leaders stuck in day-to-day operations
Maintaining the status quo can become risky, expensive, and inefficient. And it distracts leaders from large-scale business concerns and future strategy.
Solution: Get expert help
Whether you need support with specific HR or finance functions, need advice on cost-efficient employment methods, simply need a global payroll platform, or have other global workforce needs, we’re here to help.
