About Safeguard Global: We enable global expansion without the risk.
Safeguard Global has been at the forefront of global workforce enablement since we pioneered centralised global payments in 2008 and launched the employer of record (EOR) category globally in 2010. And we haven't stopped there.
Today, with our 500+ in-country HR experts, cutting-edge technology, and comprehensive solutions, we've helped over 2,000 organisations hire, recruit, pay, and manage employees in 170+ countries.
Because we created this category, we've learned that successful global expansion isn't driven by technology alone. It requires deep global expertise. We call this the marriage of expert and technology, human when it matters.
This means we have the people and the technology to ensure 100% compliance with local, regional, national, and international laws. Together, this ethos and our solutions portfolio allow businesses to scale up or down wherever, however, and whenever they want to expand, without the risk.
