EMPLOYER OF RECORD REVIEW

ThisWorks review

Local contacts, practical employee support and verified Dutch sponsorship registration are useful strengths; public pricing, EOR terms and privacy wording need clearer detail.

How this provider compares

Final global workbook scores. How we score ↗

3.6/5

Consider it for

Buyers seeking personal employment and relocation support in the provider’s specified markets.

Main trade-off

No operative MSA establishes liability, IP, notice, fees or transfer rights; marketing cannot eliminate local employment obligations.

Country fit & local delivery

Dutch primary EOR page identifies ThisWorks EOR Services B.V., KvK77332962 and offers NL, Germany, UK, Poland, Spain and South Africa. Homepage also links Portugal/Canada country guides; a guide/contact option does not alone prove current owned-entity EOR delivery. Germany page claims indefinite AÜG licence and onboarding within days once documents are ready. Dutch SNA claim not independently verified here. IND public register lists ThisWorks EOR Services B.V.77332962 as recognised work sponsor.

Which legal entity will employ this person, and who handles a difficult local employment question?

Costs, deposits & currency

NL/Germany pages offer fixed monthly fee rather than percentage of salary, without a numeric tariff. Published fee claims cover employment/payroll/compliance; add-on relocation/visa/entity services exist. No signed quote establishing deposits, payroll prefunding, FX, setup or exit charges was found. Employsome $439 is unverified against a primary quote.

Can you show the first funding request, a normal monthly invoice and a final settlement for this exact hire?

Payroll that works in practice

Germany EOR page promises monthly salary, withholding, social contributions and payslips. Why-use-us page describes automatic payslips, reporting, multicurrency payroll and distribution to existing HR systems. No actual approval/reconciliation flow, off-cycle charge or correction SLA was available. Claims to eliminate errors are marketing, not measured delivery.

If an approved salary is wrong or late, who fixes it, by when, and who pays any charges?

Support & accountability

Germany promises a named point of contact to client and employee. About page lists HR/payroll roles and languages including Dutch, English, German, Spanish, Indonesian and Polish. No binding resolution times or absence-cover terms found. Leanne Andrew and Amsterdam Rotsvast supplier-selected accounts praise responsive help; work/product context limited.

Platforms & integrations

The supplementary worksgroup.jobs domain fails normal certificate validation in both system HTTPS and fresh Chrome. The accessible primary ThisWorks site and public company profile still describe EOR and list team/contact details. ThisWorks’ indexed about page mixes substantive service/team information with theme placeholders and repeated rating text; those ratings and placeholder testimonials are not independent evidence. The failed group-domain lead does not establish inactive EOR service or ownership. No certificate bypass was performed.

Platform

Primary material describes automatic reports/payslips and HR-system distribution but gives no named integrations, sandbox, API, employee portal walkthrough or uptime record. In a published CCO interview Gino Peters acknowledges larger platforms have stronger multicountry dashboards; interview is a provider statement hosted by Employsome, not independent product testing.

Benefits & employee experience

Provider describes statutory and negotiated German benefits, leave/HR support, and relocation help with housing, cars, fuel cards and bank setup. Dutch page describes contractor-to-employee transitions. No benefit policy schedule, insurer pricing or expense repayment timeline inspected.

Contracts & responsibility

Provider promises locally compliant contracts, legal employment and ongoing compliance support; no operative EOR MSA or IP/indemnity schedule found. Marketing claims of eliminating legal risk or termination without obligations do not establish contractual allocation of client liability.

Security

Primary bilingual privacy PDF covers candidates/employees/freelancers, third-party service agreements, transfers outside Netherlands, authorised access and retention as necessary. Dutch text calls ThisWorks controller; English translates it as processor while saying it determines purpose/means, a material wording inconsistency to clarify. Rights requests target one month; data-breach reporting contact exists, but no client notification deadline or audit proof. Privacy landing page unavailable; PDF recovered directly.
