Did you know? SMBs that work with a PEO are 50% less likely to go out of business.

Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are always looking for ways to streamline operations, stay compliant, and keep employees happy. That’s where a professional employer organization (PEO) comes in. By outsourcing HR functions through a co-employment model, businesses can focus on growth while benefiting from expert HR support, compliance support and cost-effective solution.

What Is Workplace Transformation?

Workplace transformation means enhancing efficiency, collaboration and innovation. It includes embracing remote work, flexible schedules and digital tools to create a modern, adaptable work environment. A PEO can make this transformation more efficient by supporting critical HR tasks while businesses focus on strategic growth.

How PEOs Drive Change & Growth

• Streamlined HR Functions: From payroll processing to benefits administration, PEOs handle the heavy lifting so businesses can focus on scaling.
• Compliance Expertise: With ever-changing employment-related regulations, PEOs help businesses navigate compliance and mitigate risks.
• Scalability & Flexibility: Whether expanding into new markets or adopting new tech, PEOs provide adaptable HR solutions while helping to reduce the administrative burden on in-house staff.
• Access to Competitive Benefits: Traditional health insurance access, mental health resources and work-life balance initiatives improve employee satisfaction and retention.
• Cost Effective: Businesses working with a PEO can be cost-effective in terms of HR administration and turnover costs, with research showing PEO clients experience up to 14% lower¹ employee turnover.

Finding and hiring just the right new employee can soak up a lot of time and energy, especially for a small or medium-sized business. Unfortunately, too many organizations experience a letdown after landing a great hire and before a key transition phase — onboarding.

Onboarding is the process of bringing a new hire into the business and giving them what they need to become a productive employee. The key word there is "process." Onboarding involves paperwork and many details, like setting up emails and passwords and electing benefits, but also making a good first impression on the new employee and introducing them to your culture. A well-structured onboarding process sets the tone for a new employee’s long-term engagement and employee experience.

Not every business has the resources to set up and carry out the process well. In one survey, more than half (54%) of office-based employees reported dissatisfaction with their onboarding experience. Why?

• 31% cited a lack of structure.
• 20% said there was confusion about daily tasks.
• 14% said they felt isolated during onboarding.

By addressing these setbacks and more, employee onboarding with a professional employer organization (PEO) can play a key role in enhancing the onboarding experience. A PEO's organized, consistent process and HR technology can help save time and reduce employee turnover. In this guide, we'll look at some of the challenges posed by traditional onboarding processes and how PEOs can be a game-changer for businesses looking to maximize their efficiency and upgrade their onboarding process.

If you own or manage a small or medium-sized business and you want to outsource HR functions, a professional employer organization (PEO) could be just what you need. When considering which PEO to work with, one important choice to weigh is between a local or national PEO.

The choice between a local and national PEO can significantly impact the HR support services you will receive. The choice can also affect aspects of your business beyond HR administration, such as the caliber of employees you are able to attract and retain, as well as your rate of business growth. The cost-effectiveness you might enjoy from working with a PEO could also be impacted by your choice. This article will provide you with insight on each type of PEO and how it may be best suited for your company.
