Before you answer the question of, “What is a PEO?“, you need to know what PEO stands for. Actually, PEO is an acronym for Professional Employment Organization – and what does that mean? A PEO is a company that offers co-employment services to companies like yours.
A PEO handles the human resources administrative aspects of managing employees and frees up human resource professionals to handle the management and the day-to-day of the staff. The PEO specializes in payroll, workers compensation, health benefits and human resources.
They have significant purchasing power with insurance carriers because of the number of members they hold though their customers.
The National Association of Professional Employer Organizations (NAPEO) defines co-employment as the contractual allocation and sharing of employer responsibilities between a PEO and its client.
In a co-employment agreement, workers are technically employed by two separate entities: the business owner, or client employer, who controls their daily duties and core job functions; and the PEO, or co-employer, who handles personnel-related functions.
Co-employers do not supply a workforce; they supply services and benefits to a client employer and its existing workforce. The client employer maintains control of all business decisions and operations while the co-employer manages employee-related aspects of business operation.
Since they have better purchasing power, PEOs are better able to offer their clients richer benefits for significantly lower costs.
They are able to help you maximize your profits, increase the productivity of your employees, reduce time spent on transactional human resources, reduce employer’s liability, and ultimately reduce overall labor costs.

PEOs are a service that has a cost associated with it. A company takes on administrative cost per employee. This is an additional cost. So, the fees vary and scale with the size of the firm.
For a PEO to do their job properly, they require a certain level of autonomy. Hands on business owners may have to make adjustments to this. This is the case with any outsourcing scenario. Therefore, PEO staff is the responsibility of the PEO so they are not in-house employees.
