What Kind of Companies Use a PEO? Companies Like Yours.

Small and medium sized businesses across the USA are using StaffMarket to assess the benefit of hiring a Professional Employer Organization to improve their efficiency and enhance the benefits for their workforce. Every company is unique in their needs and the PEO industry offers a wide range of services to fit their demands.

Why Companies Join a PEO

Some companies are motivated by the significant cost or worker’s compensation insurance which is on the rise in many states. For these clients, PEOs can offer workers’ compensation insurance at a significant cost reduction, with the advantage of assisting in safety programs that help reduce experience mod rates. Others are seeking to ensure regulatory compliance for employment related obligations in hiring and employee management. Some companies main focus is outsourcing non-revenue related tasks (like payroll and employment taxes) to a third party, thus freeing their management staff to focus on business objectives like revenue growth and product quality. Finally many companies need access to quality health insurance and expanded employee benefit programs. Furthermore, the implementation of the PPACA with all of its regulatory reporting demands, fines and penalties and financial impacts creates even more need for companies to partner with a PEO.

Here are just a few of the companies currently using StaffMarket to review their PEO options:

They currently have a Professional Employer Organization in place but they are not happy with them at all. Their primary complaint is their lack of reporting capabilities. When asked about her priorities for a new Professional Employer Organization, reporting was number one but then quality benefits, rates and web based time and attendance. She has not yet been able to obtain LRs from Paychex yet but has provided a census. However, dependent info is not included in it. She seems to be very busy but did say that she should have time to schedule initial calls next week, so send out an intro email ASAP and ask for a time to schedule that initial call. The underwriting docs that I have been able to collect will be sent via email. This seems like a strong company so go out and make me proud (and money)!!!
