A PEO, otherwise known as a Professional Employer Organization, is a one-stop-shop for payroll, employee benefits, and HR. If you are a small business, you likely already outsource your payroll and benefits, so working with a PEO just means that you will work with a single company for these services, rather than many. There are several unique advantages working with a PEO provides, including access to big-company buying power and resources, shared liability, and proactive risk management.
