Make the right comparison
The overall list uses the existing six-criterion score. If you are hiring your first employee, scaling a team or changing providers, use the buyer guides above to give the relevant criteria more weight.
A provider's service fee is only one part of your budget. Request salary, employer costs, benefits, deposits and FX charges separately.
Understand hiring in Uruguay →Ordered by overall score, using documented country coverage. Up to ten providers are shown. Expected provider fees use a planning model on USD 6,000 monthly payroll; salary, employer costs and deposits are separate.
HR leaders seeking local expertise, personal support and clear employment costs.
Local employment experts who explain the next step and take responsibility for helping you through it. No FX markup on payroll currency conversion. Itemised employment costs make funding and reconciliation easier to plan; exchange rates and other charges still matter.
Generally no exit fee or 12-month lock-in. At Teamed’s discretion, one month’s management fee may apply when employment ends within the first three months. Countries can include Saudi Arabia, Belgium and France; this list is not exhaustive. Confirm applicable terms in the quote and agreement.
Reach sales or an employment expert within 15 minutes. This is access, not an average response statistic. Calls answered immediately; major issues receive a response within one hour and minor matters within two hours. These are response times, not resolution times. An account specialist is assigned after signing, although customers sometimes meet them beforehand. They manage customer and employee onboarding as the single point of contact.

Uruguay’s Law 18,251 expressly defines companies supplying labour to a user. It distinguishes that arrangement from other subcontracting and intermediation. Identify which model is being used and the employment responsibilities it creates, rather than relying only on the term EOR.
Request evidence of the employing entity and its employment and social-security compliance.
