The PEO will include a team of dedicated professionals, developing the tools needed to efficiently manage each specific business and HR solution. Constant monitoring of regulatory changes (Federal, state and local) make it practical for client businesses to achieve compliance as well as best practices in every facet of HR.
Onboarding
The PEO will handle employment verification (e-verify), background checks, and drug screening for prospective employees. An electronic onboarding system allows new employees to complete their required paperwork electronically, speeding up turnaround time — meaning that new hires can start contributing to the business much sooner.
Human Resource Information System (HRIS)
Managers can maintain personnel files, access employee forms like the I-9 and W-2, and manage employee time and attendance with a fully customizable HR solutions online portal. Employees can easily update their information, access required forms, request time off, and view company news. Employers can post documents, company news, important information and more in a central location for easy access… all available online and accessible from any Internet connection.
HR Consulting
HR solutions consultants are just a phonecall away, to provide advice during critical HR issues, help draft employee handbooks, and create policies and procedures to provide the groundwork needed for long-term success as regards hiring, firing, employee relations, wage and hour law, etc. The system is hassle-free and cost-effective.
Unemployment Claims Management
Dealing with unemployment claims can be time-consuming and tedious, and many business owners are simply not equipped to handle unemployment matters effectively. The PEO will process claims and see them through, working with the state on the clients’ behalf, hosting telephone hearings and advising throughout.
Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI)
In 2013, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) received over 93,000 charges for discrimination claims alone. Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI) is available through the PEO at tremendously discounted rates. EPLI coverage is intended to help with the expenses of lawsuits filed against a business by employees or former employees involving discrimination, wrongful termination, retaliation and similar claims.
People Management
For any employer, uncomfortable situations can arise involving poor performance, attendance, and/or conduct. The experienced PEO HR team will consult with owners/managers about how to handle such matters productively and compliantly.
