The challenge

Growing across Latin America is exciting. Staying compliant while you do it, less so.

Every country has its own labor law, payroll cycle, and statutory benefits. Get one detail wrong and a new hire turns into a legal risk. Roots handles that complexity so your team doesn't have to.

Without Roots
  • An entity per country, months of setup and legal fees before your first hire.
  • A different payroll provider, calendar and benefit rules in every market.
  • One missed statutory detail turns a new hire into a legal risk.
  • Answers come from a ticket queue that has never seen your country.
With Roots
  • Hire across five countries without opening a single legal entity.
  • One partner and one monthly invoice, payroll run locally in each market.
  • Contracts, benefits and filings reviewed by specialists on the ground.
  • A dedicated account manager who knows your team and your markets.
One partner, multiple solutions
