Employee Leasing Services Provide Business Bailout

If you’re one of the thousands of business owners out there waiting for our elected leaders to offer you some help during the current economic crisis – keep dreaming! The fact is, those of us who keep driving forward, never even considering anything less than survival on our own will weather this cloud. We always do.

But I know you’re looking at every way to work smarter, cut costs where you can and run a tight operation. If you haven’t heard of employee leasing, also known as PEO services, here’s your business rescue plan.

An employee leasing company handles all of the annoying headaches related to payroll management, workers’ compensation, employee benefits and keeps you in compliance with all our on-going, never-ending governmental regulations. Now, before I get into the real “meat” of the benefits and services, realize not one of those tasks brings in a single dime of profit to your business.

So let’s look at the benefits of these services for your business. A PEO will deliver on time and accurate payroll checks and reports. They’ll deduct and electronically remit all of your payroll taxes. File the quarterly tax reports and issue year-end W-2s . Remit child support payments and other payroll garnishments. Even deal with unemployment claims and appeals. Okay, what else- you ask?

Well, imagine if companies actually competed for your Workers’ Compensation Insurance- instead of the state, an agent or some crazy formula controlling your costs? An employee leasing company can provide you huge savings on your workers’ compensation insurance (typically 15-40%) that traditional insurance carriers can’t.  You won’t be paying any large up-front deposits that can run thousands of dollars. You’re actually on a pay-as-you use plan, which means you’ll never deal with the frustrations of another audit again! And employee benefits?

How about access to the same employee benefits of Fortune 500 companies? PEO services include group major medical and other health plans, dental and vision plans, 401(k) retirement plans, even life insurance coverage. Many employers have seen their group health insurance premiums drop by as much as 30%!

Plus, you’ll have help on compliance issues, such as EEOC/ADA/DOL/FMLA and all the other acronyms we have the time to keep up with. And in today’s litigious environment, you can’t just hire and fire someone without the worries of being sued, so you’ll get help with that, too.

So what will you save? Well, it depends on your current situation but there’s no doubt you’ll save time and money when you outsource the time-wasters and experience the freedom to work on ideas that really matter – like growing your bottom line.

Keep More of What You Earn.

We’ll Show You How.

5 Myths About Using Employee Leasing Services

#1
It costs more to use an employee leasing company.
You’ll save money by using these services! The employee leasing company allows you to concentrate on building your business while managing your administrative costs.

#2
I can’t save money on my workers’ compensation costs! My experience rating and the state control my rate.
Wrong! The employee leasing companies buy workers’ compensation for thousands of employees. Bulk buying means favorable discounts that you may not receive outside of an employee leasing arrangement.

#3
If I use an employee leasing company, I’ll lose control of my business.

Not true! You maintain complete control of the day-to-day operations of your company; you’re simply outsourcing the annoying paperwork. Dealing with insurance agents, audits and employee questions take time that you can better spend focused on your business. But it’s not just time. It’s money, too.

#4
Health insurance rates and their yearly increases are pretty much the same with every carrier.
Not true! On average, small business owners pay more for group health than larger companies. By partnering with an employee leasing company, many small business owners have seen savings as high as 35% on their group health costs.

#5
I’ll pay more if I use an employee leasing broker.

You’ll pay less by using our services. You get the best rates when companies compete!

You Bundle Personal Services - Why Not Business Services?

It seems wherever I go, I see the television advertisements for bundling your home cable, phone and internet services. The benefits they provide are lower costs, one monthly invoice (instead of three) for everything and one point of contact for all your service questions.  Makes sense to me- and certainly millions of others.

This simple concept of saving people time and money is what Employee Leasing/PEO services provide for business owners. Think about it- most employers either do their own payroll, use a payroll company or utilize accounting services. They  search out agents for workers’ compensation, general liability, employee benefits and other insurances. During the year they have questions regarding workers’ comp, unemployment and health insurance claims. They deal with the headaches of quarterly reports, garnishments, audits, W-2’s and a pile of other issues including multiple bills to review– all with a number of people to play phone tag with.

When employers bundle these services with an employee leasing company, they unload all the hassles of payroll administrative work, receive workers’ compensation discounts not available through traditional carriers and have access to big company employee benefit programs. Best of all, they have point of contact and receive one invoice on payday – for everything!

So if bundling makes sense at home, why not look into the benefits of employee leasing services for your business?  You’ll save money and time- we can show you how! Call us- our information is free and helpful.

Employee Leasing Services – It is for Real!

I was in Valdosta, Georgia earlier this week to see family and visit with a few clients who had found our services on the web. I decided to spend a few days to meet and visit with employers to get a pulse on how familiar or widely used employee leasing services are through the area.

I met with exactly 34 business owners during this time – the most polite and generous people by the way you could ever meet. One company was using an employee leasing service while everyone else was unfamiliar with the concept – what an opportunity! Many were in awe of the idea of having one point of contact to deal with all the headaches of payroll, workers’ compensation, HR tasks, etc. My favorite response was “is this for real?”

As employers continue to struggle during these tough economic times, right now is the time to look at streamlining unproductive administrative work as well as saving on insurance costs.  In fact of the three employers who requested proposals, their workers’ compensation savings through employee leasing totaled over $17,000 a year!

If you live in Georgia or any other state, you owe it to yourself and your business to look into the services of employee leasing. When you’re to see how these services could benefit your business – give us a call. Our information is free and helpful. We can be reached at 1-888-582-8388, or on the web at www.EmployeeLeasingQuotes.com.

Any Time Is The Right Time For PEO Services

The last few weeks have taken me out on the road to visit business with dozens of employers in a variety of industries. As you can imagine there weren’t too many positive business events to talk about right know. The economy and what lies ahead was a common topic of discussion.

What I was pleasantly surprised to hear, though, were several comments about how valuable their PEO services were during these tough times. The compliments surprised me because people generally don’t comment on PEO services unless they’re causing problems– and to hear compliments during a difficult period for most businesses really caught my attention.

The compliments ranged from help dealing with unemployment claims issues to advice on payroll payment options. These employers mentioned how hard they’re working right now to find opportunities and if they had to deal with paperwork issues too, “the doors might be closed already.”

I thought how interesting this perspective was because when times are good, people tend to be so caught up in deadlines, bidding and the sales/service side of the business. It really makes it easy to forget the value employee leasing/ PEO services provide. Right now, these employers have the time to sell their services instead of wasting it dealing with non-income producing tasks. Precious time indeed!

This represents the true value of PEO services for an employer – focusing your time and energy on profitable work, delegating and outsourcing the rest. Whether your goals are to save on workers’ compensation insurance, improve your employee benefits package, or to streamline your payroll management, the services of a PEO company can help. When you’re ready to look at the benefits PEO services can provide your business – give us call. We can be reached at 1-888-582-8388.

Why Construction Employee Leasing Works!

Business owners in the construction and trades industries enjoy the benefits employee leasing/ PEO services have to offer for three main reasons.

Better access to workers compensation

In virtually every state except Texas, workers’ compensation insurance is mandatory. Employers are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance on their employees. The problem is the insurance industry makes it almost impossible for a small contractor to obtain a workers’ compensation policy. Traditional work compensation insurance carriers can require a minimum of five employees or $80,000 in annual wages to secure a policy. Many employee leasing companies, on the other hand, can access coverage for even the smallest contractor.

Savings on workers’ compensation insurance costs

Construction employers can expect to save 10-40% with employee leasing/ PEO services compared to standard market work comp rates. One of the greatest benefits of using an employee leasing company is the pay-as-you-go workers’ compensation insurance coverage, eliminating the big deposits and up-front costs to get coverage. Traditional work comp policies will require a significant down payment (often 3 months of premium costs) to get a policy in place. Employee leasing companies do not require any up front payments for workers’ compensation coverage.

Outsourcing the administrative headaches

Imagine the time savings and freedom to complete payroll with a five minute phone call in the office or on the jobsite. An employee leasing company/ PEO service provides payroll processing, workers’ compensation administration, claims management and HR assistance. For today’s employers, the frustrating tasks of dealing with these issues along with nearly sixty other federally mandated laws can make it almost impossible to work on profitable business ideas. One payment to the employee leasing company covers all your costs for payroll, work comp and payroll taxes.

When you’re ready to explore the benefits a employee leasing/ PEO service can provide for your business, give us a call. Employee Leasing Quotes.com works with a network of construction employee leasing providers. Finding the one that will benefit your business the most is how we save our clients time and money.
