# FoxHire > FoxHire is a U.S.-based Employer of Record (EOR) platform that legally employs W-2 contract and remote workers sourced by its partners. We handle onboarding, payroll, benefits, taxes, and compliance across all 50 states, so partners can place and keep workers without setting up local entities. FoxHire is SOC 2 Type II certified. FoxHire serves independent recruiters, staffing agencies, HR departments, and contingent workforce programs. We work behind the scenes as a silent partner. We never source or recruit talent; we employ the workers our partners have already found. ## About FoxHire FoxHire has provided Employer of Record services since 1992 and is based in Canton, Ohio. We become the legal W-2 employer for workers our partners place, and we manage payroll, benefits, taxes, and compliance on their behalf. FoxHire is not a staffing firm, not a PEO, and not an employment agency. Our mission is to make compliant, multi-state hiring of contract and contingent workers simple and fast. ## Who We Serve - **Independent recruiters and staffing agencies**: Small and mid-sized U.S. firms that place contract workers but don't want to run their own back office. We provide payroll funding, timesheet collection, and compliance so they can focus on clients and growth. - **Larger staffing agencies and RPOs**: Regional and national firms with high-volume onboarding and cross-state compliance needs. We fit into their processes, manage sub-clients, and offer benefits such as health insurance and 401(k) plans for their contractors. - **Internal HR teams and contingent workforce managers**: Mid-market and enterprise organizations employing contractors in multiple states. We centralize onboarding, timesheets, payroll, and compliance on one invoice. - **Enterprise contingent workforce programs**: Large organizations with distributed operations or regulated roles. We support compliant W-2 engagement nationwide alongside existing vendor relationships. ## Services - **Employment and compliance**: We act as the employer of record for W-2 contract workers and help partners meet state and federal employment law while reducing co-employment risk. We also support compliant 1099 engagements. - **Payroll and tax administration**: We collect timesheets, pay workers accurately and on time, and handle tax withholding, wage garnishments, and unemployment insurance. - **Onboarding and offboarding**: Workers complete documents online. We run background checks, drug screens, and E-Verify/I-9. - **Healthcare credentialing and licensing**: We verify nurse licenses (including through Nursys), track expirations, collect immunization records, and maintain state staffing licenses where required. We employ healthcare professionals including RNs and LPNs. - **Benefits and insurance**: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), HSA, accident, and life insurance. Our coverage includes workers' compensation, general liability, and professional liability. - **HR support and portals**: We manage unemployment claims and terminations, and we provide recruiter, client, and worker portals for submissions, timesheets, pay stubs, and onboarding. - **Reporting**: Tools that show margins, labor costs, and compliance status so partners can make informed decisions. ## Security - **SOC 2 Type II certified**: An independent audit tested FoxHire's security, availability, and confidentiality controls over time. Announced November 3, 2025. - **Trust Center**: https://app.vanta.com/foxhire.com/trust/wfgbwcskhap0sdft5bvkck ## Differentiators - **U.S. focus**: Deep expertise in state-level employment law, payroll tax, and healthcare licensing. - **Simple pricing**: Pricing is based on a flat percentage of worker wages. - **Partner-controlled experience**: Partners set their own bill rates and keep their branding and client relationships. - **Silent partner model**: We stay behind the scenes, so recruiters and HR teams own the relationship. - **Speed and service**: Fast onboarding and responsive support from real people. - **No sourcing**: We do not recruit talent. We employ workers our partners have already sourced. ## Key Pages - [Employer of Record overview](https://www.foxhire.com/): How FoxHire hires employees on your behalf and handles payroll, benefits, taxes, and compliance. - [Recruiting and Staffing](https://www.foxhire.com/recruiting-and-staffing): How recruiting and staffing firms offer contract staffing with FoxHire handling onboarding, payroll, and compliance. - [HR Solutions](https://www.foxhire.com/human-resource-solutions): For HR teams hiring employees in any state while FoxHire handles benefits, payroll, and compliance. - [Contingent Workforce Programs](https://www.foxhire.com/contingent-workforce-program): How enterprise teams manage contingent workers across the U.S. with compliance and visibility. - [EOR Platform](https://www.foxhire.com/platform): Our technology and portals for recruiters, employers, and workers. - [Services](https://www.foxhire.com/services): Onboarding, payroll, benefits, compliance, and risk management. - [Healthcare](https://www.foxhire.com/services/healthcare): EOR services for healthcare staffing, including licensing and credentialing support. - [Education](https://www.foxhire.com/services/education): EOR services for K-12 schools, colleges, and universities. - [Professional and Technology Services](https://www.foxhire.com/services/professional-services): EOR support for professional and technology roles. - [Employee Benefits](https://www.foxhire.com/services/employee-benefits): Medical, dental, vision, retirement, and other benefit options. - [About FoxHire](https://www.foxhire.com/about): Our history and team. - [FAQs](https://www.foxhire.com/faqs): Answers for workers, recruiters, and employers. - [Book a Demo](https://www.foxhire.com/book-a-demo): Schedule a walkthrough of the platform. ## Case Studies - [How CB Partners Increased Contract Staffing Revenue Through FoxHire](https://www.foxhire.com/case-study/how-cb-partners-increased-contract-staffing-revenue-through-foxhire) - [How Rev Met Their Client Needs with FoxHire's Help](https://www.foxhire.com/case-study/how-rev-utilized-foxhires-help) - [How Eisenhower Health Enabled Remote Hiring with FoxHire](https://www.foxhire.com/case-study/how-eisenhower-health-enabled-remote-hiring) - [How a Large TX University Solved Headcount Challenges with FoxHire](https://www.foxhire.com/case-study/how-a-large-tx-university-solved-headcount-challenges-with-foxhire) - [New Zealand Based Company Expands to USA with FoxHire](https://www.foxhire.com/case-study/new-zealand-based-company-expands-to-usa-with-foxhire) ## Guides - [What Is an Employer of Record (EOR)?](https://www.foxhire.com/blog/what-is-an-employer-of-record) - [PEO vs. EOR: What's the Difference?](https://www.foxhire.com/blog/peo-vs-eor-whats-the-difference) - [Employer of Record vs. Staffing Agency: What's the Difference?](https://www.foxhire.com/blog/employer-of-record-vs-staffing-agency) - [EOR vs AOR](https://www.foxhire.com/blog/aor-vs-eor) - [Employer of Record vs. VMS: What Each Layer Handles](https://www.foxhire.com/blog/eor-vs-vms-contingent-workforce) - [Contingent EOR vs. Global EOR: What's the Difference?](https://www.foxhire.com/blog/contingent-eor-vs-global-eor-whats-the-difference) - [Your Go-to Guide to Understanding Co-employment](https://www.foxhire.com/blog/co-employment-rules) - [W-2 or 1099 for Remote Workers?
