You sign one agreement with Kleos. Your employee signs a local employment contract with the Kleos entity or partner entity in their country, so they are legally employed by us, not by you. We run payroll, withhold and remit income tax and social contributions, and apply local rules on notice and termination. If an employment dispute arises, the contract sits with us, and so does the exposure.
Your employee keeps a normal employment record, which means they can produce the documents they need for a mortgage, a visa or a tenancy. They also get a named contact at Kleos rather than a ticket queue. Absence and time off are handled by that contact today, with self-serve tracking in the platform on the roadmap.
