Let’s face it… for business owners, dealing with payroll, insurance and governmental compliance is time consuming, distracting and frankly just boring!  Nobody ever started a company thinking “I can’t wait to deal with work comp claims”.  Many business related tasks are necessary for the success of a company but in reality are not contributing to the company’s growth.  Many successful businesses become that way by focusing the company’s resources on expanding sales and improving their products or services.  Not by doing HR related administrative tasks.  Fortunately there is help - from a Professional Employer Organization or PEO.  PEOs specialize in helping companies manage four core areas of administration – Payroll, Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Administration, Employee Benefits Administration and HR Administration.  In each of these areas PEOs offer a wealth of services and management expertise that relieves the burden from business managers. It is estimated that over 50,000 businesses in the USA have hired a PEO to help manage these tasks.
