Frequently Asked Questions

What HR services does People Profilers offer in Vietnam?
People Profilers offers 13 HR services across three categories: People & Talent Solutions (executive search, recruitment, contract staffing, IT staffing, remote talent, RPO), Payroll & Employer Solutions (EOR, payroll outsourcing, HR shared services, BPO), and People Advisory & Mobility (outplacement, work permit and immigration, HR consultation).
Is People Profilers a licensed recruitment agency in Vietnam?
Yes. People Profilers Services Vietnam Company Limited (Enterprise Code 0318135337) holds Recruitment Licence 6208/2024/20/SLĐTBXH-VLATLĐ, issued under the Department of Home Affairs, Ho Chi Minh City, and Labour Leasing Licence 14/2024/SHCM, approved by the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City. We have operated as a licensed recruitment agency in Vietnam since 2024, backed by the group's regional heritage since 2002.
Which countries does People Profilers operate in?
People Profilers operates across five Southeast Asian markets: Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. The group has 9 locally-licensed entities providing full regulatory compliance in each country.
What is the difference between EOR and Payroll Outsourcing?
Employer of Record (EOR) means People Profilers legally employs workers on your behalf in countries where you do not have a registered entity — handling employment contracts, compliance, benefits, and onboarding. Payroll Outsourcing handles the monthly payroll cycle for workers you already employ — including social insurance (SI/HI/UI) contributions and personal income tax (PIT) withholding, statutory filings, and salary disbursements. EOR enables new-market hiring; payroll outsourcing streamlines existing workforce management.
