You will be contracted to Olo through Deel, our Employer of Record. An Employer of Record (EOR) is an organization hired by companies to handle the legal and administrative responsibilities of employing staff, often in countries where the company might not have a local presence. Here’s an easy way to think of it: You work for Olo in a practical sense, completing your assigned role. The EOR is your formal employer, meaning the EOR takes care of all the administrative and legal responsibilities for your employment.

Moreover, you’ll retain all the employment rights you typically have under local employment law when you’re hired through an EOR, and you will be eligible for private healthcare coverage in addition to being able to participate in all statutorily required benefits and pension programs.
