FAQs
What does Contractor of Record (COR) mean?
With Contractor of Record, Rippling engages independent contractors on a customer’s behalf. Rippling has the legal relationship with the contractor and we take on responsibility for compliance and liability for contractor misclassification claims.
What’s the difference between a COR and an EOR?
An EOR is a third-party company that hires employees on behalf of another company, and manages responsibilities such as the employment contract, payroll, taxes, and benefits. In contrast, a COR is a third-party company that engages independent contractors on behalf of another company, and handles tasks such as contract creation, payment processing, and compliance with local laws including status classification.
