Once you've determined the best Ecuador payroll option for your company, you'll need to collect some information from employees in order to add them to your payroll. Begin by acquiring their personal identification number, tax deduction card, and emergency contact information. When an employee begins working and provides you with their tax deduction card, they become a part of the social security system and are eligible for benefits.
For all income taxes, Ecuador employs a Pay As You Earn (PAYE) system. As an employer, you must withhold the appropriate amount of taxes from each employee's pay each month based on their salary. At the end of each year, you must also report the employee's taxes and deductions on a 107 Form.
Every month, both employees and employers contribute to Social Security. Employees must contribute 9.45% of their gross salary, while employers must contribute 12.15%. Employers must, however, contribute an additional 8.33% to Social Security after an employee's second year of employment.
Companies that wish to expand their operations globally have four different payroll options in Ecuador. These payroll options are:
1. Internal Payroll. This payroll option is applicable for already established companies in Ecuador. It includes devoting an entire Human Resources staff to running the company's payroll procedures.
2. Remote Payroll. Smaller firms may lack the capacity to handle their own payroll, but they may add their workers to the parent company's payroll. This action, on the other hand, requires considerable thinking. You must guarantee that you follow the rules and laws of each nation.
Working with a local outsourcing firm is one method to retain money in the local economy, but you'll still need to study all of the local rules and regulations, since you'll be held responsible.
3. Ecuador payroll outsourcing: Outsourcing your payroll to an Employer of Record in Ecuador, such as Rivermate, is another alternative for Andorra payroll outsourcing. We can manage all aspects of your payroll, including compliance. Send us a note and we'll get back to you as soon as possible!
It is the obligation of the employer to ensure that all payroll-related transactions are properly documented and recorded. All salaries and compensation payments must adhere to the local minimum wage as well as other applicable laws and regulations.

Ecuador's minimum wage increased to $400 per month in 2020 and will remain there in 2021. Keep in mind that Ecuador's compensation laws require employers to pay employees on the last day of the month on a semi-monthly or monthly basis. Employers typically pay 40% of an employee's monthly wage in the first half of the month and 60% at the end of the month.
In Ecuador, the standard workweek is 40 hours. Typically, employees work eight hours per day, five days a week.
There is universal healthcare that is available for free at the point of use. It is run by the Ministry of Public Health and the IESS (Ecuadorian Institute of Social Security). This covers prenatal treatment as well as postpartum care.
