A few things you might be wondering.
What is EOR?
EOR means Employer of Record: a local company that formally employs a person and handles the employment contract, payroll and employer administration. With Network North, the consultant works on the client’s assignment while we handle the Norwegian employment.
Who is the employer?
When we employ the consultant, Network North is the Norwegian employer. If we support your existing Norwegian entity, your company remains the employer.
Do you help both agencies and consultants?
Yes. We work with recruitment agencies, companies and consultants. We agree who handles what before the assignment starts.
Does the consultant need their own company?
No. Under our employment model, the consultant signs an employment contract with Network North and is paid through Norwegian payroll.
What do you need to get started?
Tell us about the assignment, work location, candidate, planned start date and agreed rate. We will guide you through the next steps and documents needed.
Is the calculator a binding quote?
No. It provides an indicative monthly estimate. We confirm the final rates, fees and terms for the specific assignment.
