In addition pre-tax (section 125 treatment) values are calculated so that your staff gets the maximum tax advantage possible. Payroll amounts may be delivered via check (including multiple locations) or direct deposited to the employee’s bank. Learn more about PEO payroll services.

Estimated Federal Regulatory Costs per Employee:

PEOs offer some relief (in the form of assistance) from the regulatory burdens often faced by General Merchandise-Retail companies. According to a 2005 study provided by the Small Business Administration (See Page 13), the regulatory burdens on small and medium sized business are:

Type of Regulation

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 often cost less than half this amount. PEO and employee leasing programs can help reduce federal regulatory costs to your General Merchandise-Retail 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.
