What is a PEO?

A professional employer organization (PEO) provides integrated services which enable business owners to cost-effectively outsource the management of human resources, employee benefits, payroll and workers' compensation. PEOs deliver these services through a co-employment model.

What is Co-Employment?

HRAH shares employer responsibilities with clients and assumes employer rights, responsibilities and risks. Under its contractual relationship, HRAH:

In a co-employment relationship, the client company continues to direct employees' day-to-day duties and activities. Because the PEO takes on the majority of HR management chores, the client company is freed to focus on the production and delivery of its products and/or services.

At the same time, HRAH, as the PEO, contractually assumes certain rights, responsibilities, and risks. We are the "employer of record" on an employee's W-2. As such we deliver and manage employee benefits, payroll processing and tax administration, workers' compensation, state unemployment insurance, EEOC claims, and much more.
