What is a PEO (Professional Employer Organization)?
A PEO company is a service that helps businesses succeed by providing efficient HR services and reduced workers' compensation insurance rates. Most business owners are experts in their field- but not in payroll, workers' compensation, HR, and employee benefits. The paperwork involved in those tasks can consume so much time that there isn't much left over for sales.
A great solution is using a PEO company. These providers handle all employee-related paperwork so employers can focus on business growth. The relationship between an employer and a PEO is a partnership, but the business owner remains in complete control over employee management and daily activities. The PEO provides complete payroll and workers' comp management, compliance, and risk management.
Working with a Professional Employer Organization offers your textile business a number of great benefits, including:
-
Workers' compensation loss reduction strategies
- OSHA regulatory support
- Work comp discounts of up to 40%.
- Access to a team of HR professionals for EPLI, drug testing, claims and more.
- Affordable group healthcare
- Supplemental, 401(k) plans, life and other insurances
Does Using a PEO Affect My Workers' Comp Rates?
Yes! That's one of the reasons more than 3 million US workers are co-employed with a PEO. For many small businesses, workers' compensation insurance is one of the most expensive parts of running their business. But when they use a PEO, they can save up to 40% off state work comp rates. Plus, there are no down payments or fees, and never any year end audits. The PEO provides any certificates of insurance that are needed.
