With today’s low unemployment rate, it can be a challenge for smaller companies to attract top talent. Many times, that’s because the candidate also has an offer from a larger company that offers a better benefits package with more perks. This may have happened to you. You thought you had a great candidate for the job, but then they took another offer. What if we told you that you could offer current and prospective employees a better benefits package without breaking the bank? It’s true. You can do this by partnering with a Colorado Springs professional employer organization (PEO) company like NetPEO. PEOs work with your organization through a legal arrangement called co-employment.

While you remain an employer of your employees and keep day to day control of your business, the PEO is also listed legally as an employer of record for your employees. This gives the PEO the legal authority to manage a variety of your HR services, such as handling payroll, supplying employee benefits packages, and more.

Benefits of Outsourcing Your HR Needs to a PEO

Outsourcing your human resources needs to a PEO provides a number of benefits, from reduced costs to access to specialized expertise on payroll, taxes, benefits management, workers’ compensation and more. Outsourcing the paperwork and headaches associated with your company’s human resources needs lets you focus on your business instead of making sure everyone gets paid on time. Besides getting your valuable time back you get:

Increased Bargaining Power

Since a PEO often partners with several businesses, our employee pool is much larger than any single company’s. This means that we have much more bargaining power when it comes to getting a great employee benefits package. A PEO can provide your employees with top-tier benefits at prices that are some of the best in the industry.

More In-Depth HR Services

As an employer of record for your employees, a PEO has the ability to provide more in-depth services than when you outsource just a couple of services with a Colorado Springs HR outsourcing company. An HR outsourcing company can provide you with certain a la carte administrative services. However, when you partner with a PEO, you get many more services due to its status as a joint employer.

You’re Still in Control

While you might balk at the term “co-employment,” seeing it as a threat to your ability to control your company and the direction it’s headed, the reality is that as the business owner in a co-employment relationship, you are the CEO. The chief executive officer has the power to:

Dictate the HR services the PEO provides
Have the final say in all decisions
Maintain control over the direction of the company

Save Money and Have Happier Employees

Co-employment with a PEO often costs less than hiring a full-time, in-house human resources director. Plus, with the range of high quality, reliable HR services you can get from a PEO, employees are often happier and tend to stay with the company for a longer amount of time. This can save you money by cutting down on costly employee turnover rates.
