A Professional Employer Organization (PEO) helps you eliminate HR, finance, and employee administration headaches while protecting yourself from liabilities. Working with one is how small- and medium-sized businesses can realistically and affordably offer benefits similar to larger corporations.
Our California PEO brokers are ready to connect you with the perfect PEO to meet your needs. If your business is growing, partnering with a PEO can bring you a full suite of HR and finance services without paying for full-time in-house staff.
Why Hire a PEO?
Growing companies must attract more and better talent to keep up with the growth. At the same time, larger companies face more business risk and regulation. A solid HR or PEO team will help recruit new talent, help you be compliant with federal and California regulations, and much more.
A PEO handles these HR, compliance, and payroll tasks so business owners can focus on their core business. This is done through the co-employment relationship. You can stop spending all your time on HR and finance administration at a cheaper rate than hiring your own team. The most common payment arrangement is a fee per employee.

Do You Face These Business Challenges?
When do you know you need to partner with a PEO company? We have talked with our PEO clients and found if you are facing any of the following challenges, it is time to consider calling our team for a referral.
Need an Expert to Ensure You Are in Compliance?
Industry regulations, federal and California state labor laws, record keeping, taxes, and fees — the list of items your business must comply with is nearly endless. If you are not complying, it can create huge, expensive issues that could take down your entire company.
A PEO broker can link you to a company that has the specific risk management expertise to ensure you remain in compliance with federal, state, and industry regulations on time, every time. Remember, once you reach certain employment levels, new regulations kick in!
Having an Expert to Handle Payroll Management
Do you struggle to balance budgets, spreadsheets, payroll distribution, and other administrative tasks? If payroll processing is your regular nightmare, it’s time to remove these tasks from your plate and allow your PEO partner to save you time and paperwork.
By clearing these tasks from your calendar through our payroll services, you can get back to your business, get more clients, and continue developing new products and services to grow your bottom line.
Workers’ Compensation and Legal Compliance in CA
When you hope to ensure your business complies with state and federal rules and regulations, your California PEO broker can help. Your team of professionals will ensure your business is following regulatory compliance rules like minimum wage law, safety compliance, and unemployment insurance.
You can also get help setting up workers’ compensation insurance plans and dealing with workers’ compensation claims to protect your employees and retain top talent.
Want to Improve Your Benefits and Properly Administer Them?
Attempt to sign on to employee benefit programs on your own, and you may be met with high insurance costs, extremely complicated contracts and commitments, and even denials due to your company’s size.
Working with a PEO allows you to access various benefits, typically with sizable discounts. Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans, retirement plans, and more are within reach once you have a PEO partner.
Also, you will not need to worry about benefits administration as a PEO will support you and your employees. In short, a PEO can be the first big step to offering solid employee benefits and attracting better talent.
Get Help Directing Your Business Through the ACA
The Affordable Care Act added a new layer of complication to already-complicated health plans. Please do not do it on your own and face penalties. Allow a PEO partner to navigate the ACA for you.
An Expert to Handle Claims Against My Business
Do you have a plan to handle legal issues that could come up between you and your employees? HR teams know how to handle risk management to shield companies from lawsuits.
From unemployment to discrimination and wrongful termination claims, a PEO partner can securely pilot you through the process and manage any claims fast, within budget, and the law.
Tired of Being Your Own “HR Department?”
When business is booming, your days as an owner can be filled with hiring and training duties you do not need to take on. Many owners also hate firing employees and performing exit interviews. A PEO hired through one of our California brokers can handle all those HR tasks for you.
A PEO Is Not Just an HR Contractor
When you work with a PEO partner, you will enter into a “co-employment arrangement.” You, as the business owner, maintain complete control over your companies and make all final decisions. The PEO is named the employer of record and is responsible for your company’s HR, benefits, finance, and employee administration management.
This contract allows a PEO to receive and handle sensitive and confidential information usually reserved solely for an employer. This also enables your PEO to create a large “employee pool” for more extensive, better benefits and greater bargaining power with benefits providers.
Part of your PEO broker’s job is explaining the co-employment contract. Hence, you know exactly how you will partner with your new PEO, including how to handle conflicts and, if necessary, terminate the agreement.
