Professional Employer Organization Services

A Professional Employer Organization (PEO) establishes a co-employment relationship with your company, allowing you to outsource many of your HR responsibilities. The PEO becomes the employer of record for tax and insurance purposes, while you maintain day-to-day control of your employees and business operations. This arrangement enables small and medium-sized businesses to access better benefits, reduce administrative burdens, and ensure compliance with employment laws.

Our implementation process typically takes 2-3 weeks and follows these steps: 1) Initial consultation to understand your business needs, 2) Proposal and agreement signing, 3) Employee onboarding and documentation collection, 4) Systems setup and integration, 5) Training for your team on our HR platform, and 6) Go-live with ongoing support. We assign a dedicated implementation specialist to ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption to your business.

Our pricing is typically structured as a per-employee, per-month (PEPM) fee, which provides transparency and predictability for your budget. The exact fee depends on several factors including the number of employees, the specific services needed, your industry, and your workers' compensation requirements. Unlike many competitors, we don't have hidden fees or long-term contracts. We're confident in the value we provide and allow clients to adjust their service level as their needs change.

The legal framework for PEOs varies by state, but generally involves signing a client service agreement that establishes the co-employment relationship and clearly defines the responsibilities of both parties. Your business remains the worksite employer with control over your workforce, while the PEO handles specific employer obligations like payroll processing, tax filings, and benefits administration. Our legal team ensures all agreements comply with federal and state regulations, and we maintain all necessary certifications and insurance coverage required by law.

A PEO combines the employees of all its client companies into a larger pool, creating economies of scale that allow access to better benefits at lower costs. This means your small or medium-sized business can offer Fortune 500-level benefits packages that would otherwise be unavailable or prohibitively expensive. Our benefits offerings include comprehensive health insurance options, dental and vision coverage, retirement plans, life and disability insurance, and additional voluntary benefits. We also handle all benefits administration, including enrollment, claims support, and compliance with regulations like ACA.

Absolutely. In a PEO relationship, you maintain complete control over your business operations and day-to-day management of your employees. You make all decisions regarding hiring, firing, compensation, job assignments, and business strategy. The PEO handles administrative HR functions, compliance matters, and benefits administration, allowing you to focus more on running and growing your business. Think of it as outsourcing the administrative burden while retaining full control of your core business functions and company culture.
