What are the advantages of PEO Services

What is PEO?

A professional Employer Organization (PEO) is a company that enters into a joint-employment relationship with another company by leasing employees to the company, allowing the PEO to share and manage many employee-related responsibilities and liabilities. Employers can outsource human resource functions such as employee benefits, compensation and payroll administration, workers' compensation, and employment taxes as a result of this.

PEOs (Professional Employer Organizations) typically act as professional employers for the employees of their clients. Employee liability is transferred to the PEO when the client company reports its wages using the PEO's federal employer identification number (FEIN). Employers benefit from economies of scale by offering more benefit options, often at lower rates.
