The situation: Overcoming hiring complexities in countries without entities
As a multinational organization with a presence in over 15 countries, Melexis faced a challenge when they wanted to hire a skilled employee in the Netherlands, where they didn’t have a local office. Without an entity there, they couldn’t employ the individual on their payroll while ensuring compliance with local tax, social security, and employment laws.
The solution: G-P, a recommended partner for simplifying hiring
Melexis turned to their global payroll partner, SD Worx, who recommended G-P as a trusted Employer of Record (EOR). G-P enabled Melexis to move forward with the team’s hiring needs in the Netherlands without the time-consuming and costly process of establishing a local entity. This meant that Melexis could onboard the new employee quickly and efficiently while avoiding the complexities of setting up a formal business presence in the country. With G-P managing payroll, benefits administration, and regulatory compliance, Melexis was free to focus on integrating the new hire into its team and driving forward crucial business objectives in the region.
“Thanks to SD Worx’s recommendation, we found G-P to be a reliable and efficient solution for managing international hires, ensuring compliance, and easing the complexities of global employment without the need for a local office.

Melexis also turned to G-P when hiring a team member from Turkey who would be working in Belgium while their work and residence permits were being processed. This allowed the individual to start immediately, and once the permits were approved, they were seamlessly transitioned to Melexis’ payroll in Belgium. G-P’s flexibility made managing this process effortless, freeing Melexis from navigating complex regulations.
The impact: Efficient hiring with G-P and SD Worx
By partnering with G-P and SD Worx, Melexis has unlocked greater agility in global recruitment, enabling them to hire in any location without establishing new entities. This has saved valuable time, reduced administrative burdens, and ensured full compliance with legal requirements. Melexis plans to continue using G-P’s services for future global hires, confident in the partnership’s ability to support their growth and global workforce management.
“Working with the G-P team has been a great experience. The level of service G-P provides has been crucial to our growth. We have confidence that our international hires are well supported by G-P and SD Worx, allowing us to focus on expanding our global workforce without administrative complexity.
