EOR for Staffing Agencies

The Back Office Behind
Your Staffing Agency

You recruit, you place, you own the client. Revelation becomes the legal employer of every worker you put to work: weekly payroll, workers compensation, specialty insurance, benefits, HR and compliance, under white labelled documentation that carries your brand. No payroll float, no comp policy to secure, no entity in every state, and no employment risk on your balance sheet. Thirty years of running exactly this for industrial staffing firms on the Gulf Coast.

Why Agencies Use an EOR

Recruiting Is the Business.
Employment Is the Risk

A staffing agency makes money finding people and placing them. Everything after the placement is cost and liability: funding weekly payroll before the client pays, securing a workers compensation policy with no loss history, registering in every state a client operates in, administering benefits, and absorbing the claim when something goes wrong on site.

An Employer of Record takes all of it. Revelation employs the workers you place, under your name on the paperwork, and carries the payroll, the insurance and the compliance. You keep the client, the margin and the growth. For firms placing into industrial, marine and defense environments, we also carry the USL&H, MEL, DOD and nuclear site access coverage that no new agency can obtain on its own.

The Risk Stack

Four Liabilities an Agency
Carries as Employer

These are the obligations that follow the legal employer. On an EOR, they follow Revelation.

CashPayroll Float and Growth

Every new placement is a weekly payroll obligation funded weeks before the client invoice is paid. Growth consumes cash faster than it generates it, which is why agencies stall at the size their line of credit allows. On an EOR, Revelation funds payroll and you invoice on your terms, so headcount is not capped by your bank.

InsuranceWorkers Compensation and Loss History

Carriers price a staffing agency on classification and experience, and a new agency placing into high hazard work has neither history nor leverage. One serious claim raises the cost of every placement for three years. Revelation carries the policy on thirty years of history and manages claims to closure. See risk and insurance →

Specialty CoverageThe Environments You Cannot Place Into

Shipyards, docks, offshore, defense installations and nuclear plants require USL&H, MEL, DOD compliance, CMMC certification and nuclear access coverage. Those markets are closed to agencies without a clean, long history. Revelation carries all of them, which opens client work most agencies have to decline. See specialty coverage →

ComplianceMulti State and Program Requirements

Each client state adds registrations, and each client site adds programs: DISA consortium testing, DOT driver files, TWIC, ISNetworld, PSM training records. Revelation is already registered in all 50 states and administers the programs as part of employment, so a new client in a new state is a placement, not a project.

EOR vs Funding vs PEO

Three Ways to Back an Agency.
Only One Carries the Employment

Payroll funding lends you money against receivables. A PEO co employs your internal staff. An Employer of Record becomes the legal employer of your placed workers.

FAQ

Staffing Agency EOR Questions

How does an Employer of Record work for a staffing agency?

+

You recruit and place the worker and set the bill rate with your client. Revelation becomes the worker's legal employer: weekly payroll, taxes, workers compensation, specialty insurance, benefits, HR and compliance, documented under your brand. You invoice the client, or Revelation does under the Done For You model, and the employment risk sits with Revelation rather than your agency.

Does the client or the worker see Revelation?

+

Under Done With You, offer letters, onboarding, pay stubs and employee communications carry your brand. Revelation appears as the employer of record on tax and insurance documents, which clients in regulated industries expect and often prefer.

Can a new agency start placing without a comp policy or payroll funding?

+

Yes. Revelation carries the workers compensation policy and funds weekly payroll, so a new agency or an independent recruiter can place from the first week without securing coverage, a credit line or state registrations.

Can we place into shipyards, docks or defense sites?

+

Yes. Revelation carries USL&H, Maritime Employers Liability, DOD compliance, CMMC certification and nuclear site access coverage, which opens markets that are closed to agencies without that insurance.

Does Revelation compete with us for clients?

+

No. Revelation is an Employer of Record, not a staffing agency. We do not recruit or source candidates, and our business depends on the agencies we support growing their placements.
