Employment contract
SA-compliant and BCEA-aligned.
People Office
Hiring someone in South Africa from the UK? We make it legal.
We become the registered employer on your behalf. We handle the contract, the payroll, the tax, and the compliance. You manage the person's work.
Plain English explainer
What is an Employer of Record — in plain English.
If a UK company wants to hire someone in South Africa, they legally need a registered SA entity to employ that person on their behalf. Without one, the worker has no contract, no UIF, no PAYE registration, and no protection under the Basic Conditions of Employment Act.
BPOLytix becomes that entity. We employ your South African hire on paper, process their payroll every month, handle all SARS submissions, and keep everything BCEA-compliant. You pay us a fixed monthly fee. You manage the person's day-to-day work.
No corporate red tape. No global platform pricing. A straightforward SA↔UK corridor service built for businesses that hire across borders.
Both the employer and the employee are protected. Most UK↔SA arrangements currently are not.
