Peo or employee leasing companies provide a number of valuable services to their clients. Typically, a Peo or employee leasing company will provide payroll services and assist companies in managing their human resources by providing employee manuals and other services, which are sometimes difficult for smaller companies to provide on their own. Better management of workplace safety can help control the cost of worker compensation. Improved hiring practices and experienced representation in unemployment insurance benefit and tax matters can help keep the cost of unemployment compensation down. Because leasing companies represent a number of employers, and therefore a larger pool of workers, the cost of benefits can sometimes be lowered. In some cases, client employers, which could not afford to provide certain benefits such as health insurance, find it affordable to do so when taking advantage of the buying power of an employee leasing company.

That statement was written by the Department Of Labor.

Great comments by everyone here. Using a Professional Employer Organization or PEO is really a great avenue for HR outsourcing for small and medium sized business. However, finding the "best fit"

Does anybody know anything about this company, PML Worldwide Http://www.planmarc.com. Everyone is talking about them lately like they are the best thing since sliced cheese.[/url]

I work with BBSI and have been very happy with them. I was reluctant to place clients with a PEO but they provided a significant savings (WC, payroll) so the insured wanted to give it a shot. That was 4 years ago and things are still running smoothly. PEO's are not the answer for everybody but they are a good fit for many employers.

PEO or employee leasing (sometimes referred to as staff leasing...really depends on the States you are talking about), is a great solution for companies that are looking to get better control over risk management.

The PEO partners with your company and offers a safety program along with their comp policy. Often the rates are discounted as much as 50%. We have had a great amount of success getting businesses out of the risk pool with this program.

The additional benefit is the comp is pay-as-you-go, no deposits, no ARAP charges, no penalties for underpayment at year end. Plus...NO AUDITS!

We recently placed an $8 million payroll, national IT staffing company with a PEO that is saving them more than $100,000 annually in premiums.

I agree also with your information. It's very nice that someone explains what is employee leasing. It makes me understand employee leasing more. I also want to share something. Employee Leasing gives benefits, it is a great way in hiring person for a job without having to worry about the payroll and HR issues normally associated with the employment.
