HR expertise.
A team that answers.
No ticket numbers
Why businesses switch
Many PEOs are built to serve thousands of companies at once. Optimum HR is built to serve yours, and three commitments define that difference.
When you call Optimum HR, a real person answers, rather than an AI bot or a ticket number in a queue. Email responses average under two hours, so questions about payroll and benefits get an answer the same day.
Every client works with a dedicated benefits rep, a dedicated payroll rep, and a dedicated HR rep. These named specialists already know your account, so you reach people who understand your business rather than a shared support pool.
Optimum HR charges a flat per-employee rate (PEPM), published up front, with no bundled surprises. The fee stays steady as your team grows, rather than climbing like a percentage of payroll every time you give a raise.

Client Reviews
The company I work for switched to Optimum less than a year ago and there has been nothing but up-sides since doing so. Everybody in the company is grateful for the benefits that Optimum provides such as Life Insurance and Dental, something that we've never had before. We are very grateful as well for the extra benefits, such as the Working Advantage discounts on movie theater tickets and theme park admissions. Whenever I have a question regarding payroll or benefits, Fabiola and Shaked have always been quick, patient, and kind in their responses, which is something that I'm very grateful for. All in all, we are very pleased with Optimum and everything they are doing for us.

Good to know
Yes. Optimum HR is built around your company size rather than a single industry. If you have between 5 and 250 employees, Optimum supports businesses across manufacturing, healthcare, real estate, professional services, wholesale, software, and more. The experience stays the same whether you work in a traditional field or a tech-forward one. See our Industries page for more information.
Yes. Optimum HR runs multistate payroll and compliance across all 50 states. Its deepest expertise sits with California-headquartered businesses, the most complex compliance environment in the country, and a multistate team is fully supported.
Optimum HR focuses on US-based teams. That focus is deliberate, because it keeps service personal and compliance expertise deep. If your workforce is entirely domestic, you get specialists who do nothing but US payroll, benefits, and HR.
Optimum HR charges a flat per-employee-per-month (PEPM) fee based on your needs. The rate is published and predictable, with no bundled or hidden fees for setup or off-cycle runs. Unlike a percentage-of-payroll model, your administrative cost does not climb every time you raise pay or hand out bonuses.
