By The Best EOR ·

SD Worx provides managed payroll, while its EOR offer through G-P is a separate employment arrangement. That distinction matters when deciding whether you need someone to run payroll for your company or an employer for a new hire abroad. This profile examines published service scope, local delivery, integrations and assurance information. It also sets out the responsibilities, contract boundaries and implementation costs that need to be clear before treating several country services as one package.

Keep SD Worx managed payroll separate from its EOR arrangement through G-P. A common commercial interface may simplify procurement, but the local processor, legal employer and applicable assurance boundary still need to be named.

Service and contracting model

SD Worx presents managed international payroll with a common contract and service-level arrangement. Its international delivery includes a partner network. Ask which local entity performs calculations, filings and payments. SD Worx: managed payroll services (checked 18 October 2026).

Payroll and EOR distinction

The managed-payroll page identifies Globalization Partners, now G-P, as the partner supporting the EOR lifecycle. The buyer still needs the employing entity and country-specific employment terms from the proposed arrangement. SD Worx: G-P partner arrangement (checked 18 October 2026).

Country evidence

SD Worx’s Belgian outsourcing page explicitly supports payroll outsourcing in Belgium. That country evidence belongs to the payroll service. SD Worx Belgium: payroll outsourcing (checked 18 October 2026).

Security scope

The trust centre describes ISO 27001:2022 for a number of products and services, with ISO 27701 covering significant Nordic activities. It also describes assurance reports. SD Worx: compliance trust centre (checked 18 October 2026).

Integration and price

Workday names SD Worx in its payroll partner network. Confirm the supported country connector and purchased features. Obtain a scope-based quote and price the G-P arrangement separately. Workday: payroll partner network (checked 18 October 2026).

Questions for your proposal

1
Which company employs the worker under the G-P offer, and which obligations remain with SD Worx or the client?
2
Which local processors, hosting arrangements and assurance-report entities cover the selected countries?
