Co-Employment Relationship

Co-Employees

In a co-employment relationship, the PEO becomes a co-employer of the employees at each client site. This allows the PEO to add a small to medium size group of employees to a much larger group. By adding these employees to a large group, the PEO is able to facilitate the economy of scale necessary to provide expertise in all areas of HR management, while providing employee benefit programs with choice and cost structure that is normally reserved for large corporations.

The client company continues to direct the employees as they did before, but now they have an expert staff to help:

  • Manage all HR Related Functions
  • Decrease Employer Liability
  • Increase productivity.
