The Professional Employer Organization (PEO) industry began in 1978 and was formerly known as Employee Leasing. The PEO as we know it today evolved from an effort to cut employee-related costs and reduce taxes. The PEO has become an increasingly attractive option for companies with high overhead costs, which has been instrumental in the industry growth. Companies spending too many resources on administration, rather than core business matters will not remain competitive in today's environment. However, by placing employees in a PEO, this burden can be alleviated.

With a PEO, you contract to become a co-employer of your employees. A PEO provides professional, expert management in the key areas of employment administration, compliance and regulation, payroll, worker's compensation insurance, unemployment insurance, and employee benefits. The business owner maintains complete managerial control over employees, and frees your management resources to focus on running your business.
