PEO

Updated: Sep 7, 2023

Professional Employer Organization (PEO)


PEO


PEO is a professional company that specializes in providing customers with various human resource services, including salary, benefits (through a pre-negotiated benefit plan with insurance companies), worker compensation and human resource compliance. In addition, PEO has established legal entities, company IDs and salary registrations in various jurisdictions around the world, thereby eliminating common tax and legal barriers. To this end, the client must sign a specific joint employment agreement with the PEO so that the PEO becomes the employer of record in the applicable country.


Typical PEO Services


PEO's service and product levels have been improved to meet the market's demand for more robust and technologically advanced solutions. The following services are always included in "off the shelf" or standard contracts; some PEOs may charge additional fees to support specific HR processes, such as recruitment, selection and enhanced talent management (e.g., job posting, salary and position benchmark analysis, applicant tracking solutions).


Typical Services Provided by PEOs are:


- HRIS and HR Data Management

- Payroll & Tax Registration and Administration

- Time and Attendance Tracking and Administration

- Health & Welfare, Retirement Plans and Administration

- Leave Administration

- Workers' Compensation

- Employment Insurance

- Employee Onboarding

- HR Policy and Compliance Documentation

- Workplace Safety Guidance

- Employee Help Line

- Online Portal and Mobile App

- Employee Relations


Co-employment


PEO requires companies to establish a "co-employment" relationship. According to the terms of this agreement, the customer’s employees are jointly employed by PEO, and PEO assumes certain responsibilities for the customer’s employment rights and risks, such as issuing income tax forms under its employer identification number, and collecting, depositing and reporting pension to local jurisdictions. The client organization still retains daily management responsibilities, including daily business operation management, budget setting, employee performance management, etc.


Cost for Services


The fee structure may vary depending on the PEO and the scope of services, from the standard per employee per month (PEPM) to a certain percentage of the total compensation. Generally, the cost of running a PEO model may be a percentage of the total salary of all employees, and the additional module may be an additional cost of PEPM. Customers can choose to pay for additional non-standard PEO service fees, or they can choose other methods to bridge the service gap with other third-party suppliers and/or internal resources, especially for strategic HR insights, changes and communication support performance management and customized welfare solutions.
