A PEO organization is an outsourcing firm that helps an employer with HR services which they\u2019re unable to provide on their own. Their services include payroll, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.attendancebot.com\/blog\/employee-development-plan\/?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=in-line&amp;utm_campaign=peo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>employee development<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, employment law compliance assistance, tax management, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.attendancebot.com\/blog\/types-of-employee-benefits-that-your-team-will-love\/?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=in-line&amp;utm_campaign=peo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>benefits<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, HR policies, and claims.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PEOs are highly cost-effective. This is because, with a PEO, you can set up an entirely different team in another country, without the need for its physical presence. Professional employer organizations usually benefit small and medium-sized businesses and mostly work on a short-term contract basis. For tax and insurance-related matters, the PEO is also considered as the \u2018Employer of Record\u2019.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A PEO works on the principle of the co-employment model. Which is, they hire staff on your behalf and manage them. PEOs do this using a shared tax ID with their client company.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Co-Employment Model<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A co-employment model is a contract-based agreement between a professional employer organization and the client company. This contract divides the responsibilities of the client company between the two. Another name for this contract is client-service agreement CSA. In the co-employment model, the employer remains in charge of all functions at the organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0These include decisions of the company, its operations, and the daily duties of employees. The job of a PEO is to supply services and assistance to the organization. It doesn\u2019t provide its client company with a workforce. The benefits and services of a PEO model are discussed in the later sections.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Services do PEOs Provide?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re a small organization looking to expand your business then professional employer organizations may just be the right thing for you. According to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.napeo.org\/what-is-a-peo\"><b>NAPEO<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, small businesses that work with PEOs are shown to grow by 7-9% more than companies that don\u2019t. According to the same source, organizations that take help from PEOs are less likely to go out of business.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What does a PEO offer?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A PEO offers the following services that help your business run smoothly:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HR management<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Payroll management<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Retirement plans<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Safety programs<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Training programs<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Development and strategy<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tax administration<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benefits administration<\/span><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.attendancebot.com\/blog\/slack-hr-make-your-recruitment-smarter-with-slack\/?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=in-line&amp;utm_campaign=peo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Employee recruitment<\/b><\/a><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Resolves your disputes<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drug testing<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What does a PEO not do?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The purpose of adding this section is to clear some misconceptions about professional employer organizations:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Loss of Control over Business<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A major misconception that persists about working with PEOs is that employers think they will lose control over their business. Which is not true. Their job is to assist and advise you in your day-to-day Human Resource issues. The control of the company remains with the original owners.\u00a0 PEOs do not have any controlling stake in the firms they work with, to begin with.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hiring and Firing your Employees<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another myth that persists about a PEO is that they will hire and fire employees as they deem fit. The decision of hiring or firing an employee remains yours. The only job of a PEO is to assist you in the hiring process. This includes writing job descriptions, reviewing their applications, and training them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Effect on Existing Staff<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working with a professional employer organization will not harm your existing employees. Instead, a PEO can be valuable for your employees in areas where they need the expertise of specialists or advice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-195760 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Co-Working-min.jpg\" alt=\"A professional employer organization \" width=\"950\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Co-Working-min.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Co-Working-min-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Co-Working-min-768x404.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Co-Working-min-100x53.jpg 100w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Co-Working-min-700x368.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASO vs PEO<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A professional employer organization lessens the burdens of employers by taking care of their day-to-day duties. ASO stands for administrative services organization. They both work in the same way i.e by providing outsourced HR services. Both models are cost-effective and which model you should opt for depends on you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some key differences between the two are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In PEO, co-employment exists, while it does not exist in ASO.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the PEO model, an employee\u2019s compensation is decided by the PEO itself. While in ASO, it is covered by the client.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In PEOs, the organization is liable for payroll tax. However, in ASO, the employer is liable.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In PEO, the state unemployment tax rate (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.attendancebot.com\/blog\/sui-state-unemployment-tax\/?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=in-line&amp;utm_campaign=peo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>SUTA rate<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) of the PEO is used. While in ASO, the client\u2019s SUTA rate is used.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A PEO may be opted by companies who want to outsource most of their HR tasks. If you want to retain your internal HR staff, the ASO model can be a better option.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PEO vs HRO<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is a minor difference between a professional employer organization and a human resource outsourcer. A PEO is fully responsible for all your HR matters. They can hire the right employees, train them, and manage their payroll. On the other hand, a human resource outsourcing firm doesn\u2019t directly employ people.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benefits of Working With a PEO<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Imagine this, instead of burdening your employees with tons of tasks, you have another helping hand to keep things running smoothly. While your employees are looking after other important tasks, they are completely unburdened by tasks you outsourced to a PEO. This is what you get from working with a professional employer organization.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not just this, some benefits are given below:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Time-Effective<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having another helping hand to help you with your administrative goals saves a lot of time. Not only this, having a PEO by your side is cost-effective for your organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Health Insurance<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Apart from strictly HR services, a PEO can deliver the following services:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Health care coverage<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Life insurance<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disability insurance<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Educational assistance<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since PEOs negotiate for these benefits, they can even reduce charges for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Workers\u2019 Compensation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working with a professional employer organization can help you get workers\u2019 comp insurance coverage. Additionally, they help resolve injured employee claims.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Work Done by Experienced Professionals<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you work with a PEO, experienced professionals do your work. Your organization will thrive when you and your employees don\u2019t have to worry about time-consuming tasks like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.attendancebot.com\/blog\/attendancebot-and-gusto\/?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=in-line&amp;utm_campaign=peo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>payroll management<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Secondly, your employees will work in a stress-free environment, and that\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.attendancebot.com\/blog\/working-from-home-tips-productivity\/?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=in-line&amp;utm_campaign=peo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>how productivity kicks in<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bring Expertise to Work<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most employees at a small organization aren\u2019t as professional when it comes to dealing with HR issues. However, when you trust a PEO with your work, you can be worry-free because workers in PEOs are experts in HR matters.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay in Control<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One benefit of a professional employee organization is that they don\u2019t take control over your business. While they assist you in most HR matters, the final decision of everything is always in your hands. In this way, you have complete control over your company while taking help from a PEO at the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reduced Payroll Headache<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a PEO working with you, forget the hassle of having to manage payrolls on your own. Not just this, a PEO provides professional assistance for you in many other complex and time-consuming matters. Some examples of this include, payroll processing, tax administration, and paycheck deliveries.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Freedom to Focus on Growth<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One benefit of working with a professional employer organization\u00a0is that you get more freedom to do away with day-to-day transactional tasks and focus on high-priority growth-oriented tasks. This allows you more time to think of ways in which your organization can grow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-195761 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Stress-free-employees-min.jpg\" alt=\"PILON\" width=\"950\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Stress-free-employees-min.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Stress-free-employees-min-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Stress-free-employees-min-768x404.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Stress-free-employees-min-100x53.jpg 100w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Stress-free-employees-min-700x368.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drawbacks of Working With a PEO<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While PEOs have many benefits for your organization, there are certain drawbacks too:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lack of Warmth<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since PEOs is a third-party organization, you and your employees will not feel the warmth and joy working with them as you do with in-house employees.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some Loss of Control<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although a PEO can never take full control over your organization, sharing many services will allow them at least some control over you. You may feel a lack of control over a few processes and employees since they don\u2019t directly report to you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Change in Culture<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A professional employer organization is an outside organization. When you work with them, your company culture is bound to change a little. In other words, the influence of an outside organization is likely to affect your own culture.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Provider Switching<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When working with professional employer organizations, you may need to deal with many different providers. It may get frustrating having to deal with a different service provider every time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Expensive<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes a PEO can be expensive for a small-sized business because they charge at least 2% to 12% of the total wages of employees employed by them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Loss of Exclusivity<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having an outside organization work with you means they are directly involved with you. In this case, you may lose exclusivity when it comes to your organization. Some processes will lack the personal attention they need.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before Selecting a PEO<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you decide to work with a professional employer organization at some point in your career, keep in mind the following points:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check-in With the Finance\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure the PEO\u2019s financial statements are strong.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure their financial, ethical, and operational practices are accredited by organizations like the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esac.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>ESAC<\/b><\/a><b>.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although a PEOs fee will be decided by the number of employees you have, still be sure to go through their fee structure before you decide one.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you decide on a PEO, it\u2019s suggested to meet them. Some PEOs charge an extra fee to talk with a live representative. Whatever happens, make sure you select a PEO that is dedicated to fulfilling their commitments.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.attendancebot.com\/?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=banner&amp;utm_campaign=peo\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-195306\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/HR-Operations-on-MS-Teams-and-Slack.png\" alt=\"Manage HR operations with AttendanceBot\" width=\"785\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/HR-Operations-on-MS-Teams-and-Slack.png 785w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/HR-Operations-on-MS-Teams-and-Slack-300x49.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/HR-Operations-on-MS-Teams-and-Slack-768x125.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/HR-Operations-on-MS-Teams-and-Slack-100x16.png 100w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/HR-Operations-on-MS-Teams-and-Slack-700x114.png 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 785px) 100vw, 785px\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensure Certification<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure they\u2019re a certified professional employer organization.
