Frequently Asked

Questions, Answered.

We become the legal employer for tax and compliance purposes. Your hire works for you day-to-day. Same tasks, same manager, same culture, but Newland handles the employment infrastructure: payroll, benefits, tax filings, and regulatory compliance.

All 50 US states and Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico is our specialty. Our team is bilingual and deeply familiar with commonwealth-specific labor law, Act 60 implications, and local benefit requirements.

Typically two weeks from signed agreement to first payroll. We’ve done it faster when needed. The timeline depends on state registration requirements and benefits enrollment windows.

We charge a flat monthly fee per employee. No setup fees, no hidden costs. The fee varies by state and benefit tier. We’ll quote you on the scope call. Most clients find it cheaper than setting up their own entity.

Yes. Newland is also a recruitment firm. We can source, screen, and present candidates, then employ them under our EOR umbrella once you make a hire. One partner for search and employment.
