Referred or known candidates
A manager, partner or employee already identified the worker.
You source and select the worker. EPIQORE onboards the person as a W-2 employee for the agreed assignment and administers the agreed payroll and employer-of-record responsibilities.
Share your website and how to reach you. Add a few details if you wish.
Payrolling is for a worker your company has already found. Instead of asking EPIQORE to recruit the person, you refer the selected worker for W-2 onboarding under an agreed assignment. EPIQORE administers the agreed payroll and employer-of-record responsibilities; your company directs the day-to-day work.
A manager, partner or employee already identified the worker.
The work is real, but the company does not want to add the person directly to payroll.
The company wants a formal W-2 assignment instead of treating the worker as an independent contractor.
Your company selects the person and defines the assignment, pay information, schedule and supervision.
We confirm that the role, worker and requested arrangement fit the payrolling service.
EPIQORE completes the agreed onboarding and employment documentation before work begins.
Your company approves time; EPIQORE processes payroll and direct deposit on the established schedule.
The final service agreement controls. Payrolling helps manage employment administration; it does not remove every joint-employer, classification, wage-and-hour or workplace-safety responsibility. This is general information, not legal or tax advice.
| Service | Who finds the worker? | Who is payrolled? | Primary value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Payrolling | Client | Accepted referred worker | Employment and payroll administration |
| Temporary / Contract Staffing | EPIQORE recruits | EPIQORE’s assigned worker | Talent plus employment administration |
| PEO | Client | Client’s existing workforce | Broader co-employment HR arrangement—not the proposed EPIQORE payrolling model |
Because the client has already found the worker, the service does not include the same recruiting work as staffing. The agreed rate covers the worker’s pay plus confirmed employer payroll obligations, insurance and unemployment costs, payroll administration, applicable benefit administration and EPIQORE’s service margin.
The exact rate depends on the role, pay, assignment, coverage, applicable requirements and confirmed service scope.
EPIQORE processes weekly timecards and pays workers by Thursday direct deposit. The same established operating rhythm supports approved payrolling assignments.
Not in a payrolling-only engagement. Your company identifies and selects the person. If you need EPIQORE to find the worker, use temporary or contract staffing.
Your company directs and supervises the work. EPIQORE manages the agreed employment and payroll administration under the agreement.
Coverage and eligibility depend on the EPIQORE program, worker, role and applicable requirements. The service agreement states the exact scope.
No. It creates a documented division of responsibilities and can reduce administrative burden, but it does not remove every potential joint-employer or legal obligation.
Share the assignment, worker type, pay information, schedule and expected term. EPIQORE will confirm whether the arrangement fits its payrolling service and provide a quote.
