A PEO is defined as an organization that provides small and medium size businesses an integrated and cost effective approach to the administration of human resources, employer risk and the management of employee related matters.

The PEO concept is simple: By creating a "co-employment" relationship with the employees, employer responsibilities can be allocated between the business owner and the PEO. By shouldering most of the employee administration, payroll, human resources, worker's compensation, personnel matters, employee benefits and more, the PEO enables the on-site employer to focus on running the business and to achieve greater control and productivity from their employees.

A PEO is an outsourcing solution in the areas of:
Payroll Processing and reporting
Payroll Tax filling
Worker's Compensation and Safety issues
Defending unemployment and worker's comp claims
Sponsoring employee benefits packages
Producing company policies and procedures
Basically, the PEO gives all for less than it would cost to have the experts on staff.
