Author Employee Leasing quotes

Author companies across the United States are often turning to PEOs and employee leasing programs to improve operating efficiencies in their companies. Companies involved in the Author business can obtain access to competitively priced workers’ compensation insurance and provide better employee benefits for their employees.

Like many companies, Author business owners and managers have discovered that as their business grows, the administrative aspects require more and more time. Eventually the company needs to hire additional administrative staff or outsource those tasks to a third party. As the regulatory and legal environment for business gets more complicated many companies have hired a PEO or employee leasing company to handle those non-revenue producing activities that do not enhance the Author company's bottom line.

What can a PEO do for your company?

Payroll Administration

While many payroll services options are available for Author companies, a professional employer organization (PEO) will take it one step further. In addition handling all payroll calculations for wages, taxes and benefits deductions, a PEO will also directly remit amounts due to the taxing authorities (state and federal) and also provide all insurance premiums to the carrier. Your company avoids the risk of fines for late payments. A PEO will ensure that your Author company employees get advantageous tax treatment (section 125) so that any deductions for health insurance get deducted prior to tax calculations.

Work Comp Insurance Coverage

If your Author company is located in any state except Texas, workers’ compensation insurance coverage is mandated by your state government. Companies operating without a policy to cover employees risk significant fines and personal liability for on the job injuries. When you hire a PEO, their work comp policy provides the coverage for your employees. A PEO will also work to establish a safety program for your Author company and ensure that all claims are managed. Work comp insurance can be a significant for many business and PEOs can often offer a significant savings. Learn more about PEO workers' compensation insurance.

All Firms

<20 Employees

20-499 employees

500+ employees

All Federal Regulations $5,633 $7,647 $5,411 $5,282
Economic $2,567 $2,127 $2,372 $2,952
Workplace $922 $920 $1,051 $841
Environmental $1,249 $3,296 $1,040 $710
Tax Compliance $894 $1,304 $948 $780

According to this SBA study, the regulatory costs for Workplace compliance and Tax compliance averages $2,000 per employee per year for companies with less than 500 employees.

PEO and employee leasing programs can help reduce federal regulatory costs to your Author company or any other type of business. In addition this table does not include any costs for State regulatory burdens (like state unemployment taxes or state imposed workers’ compensation insurance costs). These costs are often significant amounts in addition to the amounts shown here. Learn more about PEO and employee leasing cost savings.
