What is the EOR model and why it matters for US businesses
Your global expansion shouldn’t take 12 months, cost half a million dollars, or require a team of lawyers. Smart companies are now opting to skip traditional outsourcing and opt for a direct team-building model in India.
An EOR (Employer of Record) Model helps you scale your operations globally without building a foreign subsidiary. It’s your dedicated India-based team that works as a full-time extension of your US office.
Unlike traditional outsourcing, Kaamwork gives you complete control over:
who you hire
your choice, not vendor-staffed
how they work
your culture, tools, workflows
where you scale
5 engineers today, 50 tomorrow – no red tape
By setting up through Kaamwork, U.S. companies gain:
Access to India’s top talent across engineering, data, and product roles
Cost savings of 65% on salaries and up to 80% on overheads compared to US hiring
Time-zone advantage, so you get round-the-clock workflow productivity
Scalability support to grow from 5 to 50+ people without entity complications
Why choose Kaamwork’s EOR model over outsourcing
Most offshore outsourcing companies are just body shops. They rent you talent, lock you into their processes, and keep the control (and sometimes even your IP). That’s not how you scale a serious business.
When you choose us, we give your own India team at a flat fee of $599 per employee per month
Slash your costs by 80%
- starting next month
Not just salary savings. We are talking about eliminating the $500K+ you'd spend setting up your own Indian entity. Your CFO will send thank-you notes
Your tools, your culture, your way
- zero compromise
Forget "adapting to vendor processes." Your India team will use Slack, Jira, GitHub - whatever you use. They attend your meeting calls, follow your sprints, and live your culture. Seamlessly.
You own everything
- including your team's loyalty
Your IP stays yours. Your processes stay yours, too. Most importantly? Your team members work for YOU, not us. They get promoted in YOUR company, not ours
Strategic innovation partner
- not just a vendor
We are not intermediaries that make profits while providing an average workforce that delivers average results. We are the bridge that makes hiring top talent a cakewalk. Kaamwork attracts candidates from India’s top companies and retains them with <5% attrition (way lower than the industry average of 30%+)
Perfect for companies ready to take full operational control. It is you who will take the interview, hire, and manage. We just serve as a platform that connects you to the right people while handling compliance and HR infrastructure.
Best for: Quick pilots, short projects, or when speed outweighs structure.
Full-time Employee Model
Legally employed by Kaamwork, but functionally YOUR team member
In this approach, you have complete control over salary, benefits, promotions, career routes, and day-to-day management. Kaamwork just executes your decisions as your HR admin partner.
Best for: Long-term strategic roles (engineering, product, data science) and new companies looking to expand in India
Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT)
Executives who want proven results before taking full ownership
Phase 1 (Build): Kaamwork’s EOR + HR infrastructure helps you establish your India operation using proven playbooks
Phase 2 (Operate): We manage day-to-day operations while you observe and learn
Phase 3 (Transfer): Complete handover of operations, processes, and team relationships
Best for: Risk-averse organizations, first-time India expansion, and companies lacking indian market expertise.
What are the key benefits & value
Why Kaamwork isn’t just another offshore outsourcing company
We give you 100% ownership and control
Your people work for you, not us. You own the IP, the decisions, and the career paths. We are just a tech-enabled HR platform that makes it frictionless.
We make hiring less time-consuming
You can hire in as little as 48 hours instead of waiting 8–12 months for entity setup.
We are obsessed with talent quality
We would rather source 3 perfect candidates than 30 mediocre ones. At Kaamwork, quality is non-negotiable. Only the A+ talent makes it to the cut.
We make compliance simple for you
Managing Indian laws, such as Provident Fund (retirement savings), ESIC (social security/healthcare), and gratuity (severance), can make you feel overwhelmed. Kaamwork does it all, so that you don’t need in-house legal teams.
We promise round-the-clock productivity
With India’s time zone advantage, your team can keep projects moving while your U.S. team sleeps. So you have a near 24/7 productivity.
Tell us your role requirements, technical skills, and cultural fit criteria. We tap our network immediately.

Pick between contractor, full-time employee (EOR), or BOT — depending on your risk appetite and growth stage.
