HR Outsourcing Quote and PEO Quote Instructions

First, a little introduction.  We mainly use an outsourcing method called Professional Employer Organization (PEO) outsourcing.  The owners keep their employees, control over business operations and save money when using a PEO.   The PEO industry has become highly regulated at the state and federal level and is handled here in the US.

Our job is to connect you with a PEO that is geared towards your industry.  Keep in mind that the PEO is taking payroll liabilities away from your company and saving you money in most cases.  There are times when companies have fine tuned their HR department and it is beneficial for them to keep doing what they are doing.  The PEO processes payroll and distributes that payroll to your employees.

If you could, please fill out the simple Quote/Contact form with basic information, we will then contact you (yes, only one of us) and ask a few simple questions to pre-qualify your business.  We want to make sure to not waste your time if an outsourcing service is not required for your business.

After you ask us to contact you, we will request more detailed information about how we will be able to help you, with your approval of course.  It will be helpful if you can have this information handy.  The list below will give us the info needed to contact multiple PEO and HR outsourcing companies for a quote comparison.

So here is what is needed from you to get a PEO Quote:

□       Business Name

□       Type of Industry

□       Employee daily tasks (list of your state workers comp codes would help)

□       Suta Tax Rate (State unemployment tax)

□       Current admin costs (if currently outsourced)

□       Loss run if you have had a claim on your State Workers comp policy

There might be additional info needed but this information will get us started on the comparison between what your human resources costs are versus going with a HR outsourcing service or PEO.

We go by this way of getting your information so it is not intrusive and also to make sure you like us.  Another thing to point out is that your information goes to 1 email address only.  We do not sell your information and will never give out any information on your business.

Our services are also free to you for the quote.  The PEO companies pay us service fees to bring them new customers, as with every other quote website out there.  Our main goal is to make sure you get the best service with privacy and constant personal service.

So go ahead and fill out the PEO quote form and we will contact you shortly!!

Sincerely,

Bryan, Dave and Scott.

Jobless Claims Up in June 2011

Looks like we are not in recovery, but maybe we are, wait…….opps, back into not being in recovery. Will this end..kinda sorta maybe?

For the past 4 weeks, we have been in a rut with jobless claim submissions totaling over 400,000 per week.

“Jobless claims remain elevated, and this will remain the limpest economic recovery since the Great Depression,” said John Lonski, chief economist at Moody’s Economy.

“This is telling us that we’re not making much progress at bringing back the nearly 7 million jobs that have been lost since January 2008.”

We have noticed that with these claims, many small businesses have had their SUTA rate in Florida go higher. Florida is a leading state for unemployment but our PEO partners have been keeping their rates down.

“Our SUTA rate has remained low through client education, resource sharing, and sound underwriting. The true benefits of a co-employment relationship are achieved when clients understand how fraudulent unemployment claims can be reduced and how this leads to lower labor costs for them.” says Richard Schaub, owner of a PEO Company in Florida.

For more information on looking at how to cut back your suta, go to our PEO Quote Form and follow the instructions. We will be getting back with you to help see what is available in your market.

The Reality of Employee Retention

Understanding Employee Retention

I was reading an article yesterday about how a big business owner saved his business.  One of the main things that stuck out in my head was the fact that he cut half of his workers and reduced salaries by 20% of the people who stayed.  Another thing I noticed was that he took out money of his kid’s college fund to pay for marketing for a hopefull boost.  Needless to say, what kind of person does it take to run a company?

The End Result of Saving Your Business

It will be hard to argue the fact that tough decisions have to be made in order to save the business.  If you lay it out the decision making process on paper, it is much like being a general at war trying to figure out what you can sacrifice to win the battle.  I know it is a little far fetched but the concepts are the same. 

Tough decisions have to be made to save any company.  Families are hit, your unemployment rating is hit, and even worse, you loose hard earned knowledge that walks out the door when your employees leave.  We will be listing in this series of articles ways to cut down on major items that you may not have thought of.  We will even go further and show you, even on video, how to analyze if any of your processes are wasting money and time.  Business is all about return of investment (ROI), right?

A general list of some items will include payroll, workers compensation, internet marketing, website analsys, facebook marketing, video marketing, unemployment tax savings and so on.  We can even show you how to set up a professional looking site with wordpress for under $10 a month.  The cost versus profit for our website stuff has been shockingly low. 

So, bookmark us and like us on Facebook if you would please.  Depending on our initial feedback of the program, we will begin to give out some of our services for free that we offer other clients at a price.  So, like us and stay tuned.

Sincerely 

Bryan

Government Shutdown, Does your PEO have you covered?

Government shutdown affecting small businesses, maybe…

It looks like this will be the first government shutdown since 1995.  We here at HRoutsourcingquote.com recommend you look at any new information on what the IRS and other government entities that are tied with payroll.  Some departments may be closed.

As of now, the IRS will possibly be looking at shutting down some non-essential parts of their organization.  This may delay returns, filings and other items required by the IRS.  So, with that being said, keep track of your filings and verify the processing.

As always, we recommend getting a quote for a PEO service to determine how much money you can save and what benefits they can provide.

SUTA Rate Savings through a PEO

Suta Basics

Click Here to get a PEO Quote so I can get a low SUTA rate. We are noticing the median SUTA (State Unemployment Tax Rate) for Florida has been rising due to the economy, of course.  PEO services have been looking at the issue and some of them have been getting their rates down to around 1%.  This is done through the PEO/business co-employer agreement for the workers. Click Here to get a PEO Quote so I can get a low SUTA rate.

In Florida, the SUTA (State Unemployment Tax Rate) starts new businesses off for 2.7% for the first couple of years.  It goes down from there if no unemployment claims are filed for a few years.  There is a formula for this but it is different for each state.

SUTA and the PEO Relationship

So combined with the other benefits of a PEO, the SUTA rate has been a hot point of why some businesses have been joining the PEO agreement.  Note that most PEO’s have a pay-by-month structure for flexibility and planning.  Ask the broker or PEO service what their take is on cancellations.

As with any type of insurance or liability change over, make sure that the applications and agreements are confirmed from the PEO before you cancel your current PEO, workers comp, or anything else you have in place.   This way, if the PEO doesn’t approve the applications or agreement for any reason, you don’t have to reinstate any coverage.

“So how can I use this service to benefit me?”

So, when looking at a PEO quote, it should have listed your current rates for w/c, taxes, and admin next to what the PEO offers.  If for any reason it looks to complicated, contact the broker or PEO company for an easier understanding.  This is actually common due to the amounts of information on some PEO quotes.

www.NAPEO.com also has a very informative FAQ section about the industry as a whole.  There should also be information on your state’s department of Financial services on how to see if a PEO is legit or not.  Of course, feel free to get with one of us if you have any questions.  Our contact info is in the author’s box below.

What is a PEO Service and how can it help you?

PEO Basics

PEO Services vary in benefits and types of services that are provided. Along with the possible cost savings, workers compensation savings, payroll administration savings, health benefits, and tax liability transfer, the decision can actually be simple. Let’s go over why a PEO may or may not be a good fit for businesses with employees.

Here is a list of things to compare for a PEO Quote

1. In the state of Florida, the state unemployement tax rate for a new business is 2.7% for the first couple of years.  Some PEO’s can get you down to 1%.  Other states are different so get with us for more details.

2.  Workers Compensation can be pricey depending on what your employees daily tasks consist of.  The best way to see how the market is to look at a PEO quote from multiple carriers and services.

3.  Payroll Administration Savings depend on the service as well.  The section is two fold because of time savings and payroll compliance protection through a PEO.  Again, a PEO quote will give you the market rate for this. The section can also be labeled as an payroll outsourcing description.

4.  Better health benefits can be obtained through a PEO because of the group plan structure under the PEO.  Again, some PEO’s don’t have this option so be aware of this.  Remember, employees look at 2 things when staying with an employer, benefits and pay.

Of course, there are more items to list but this should give you the main points when researching if a PEO fits your business.  We always recommend to not go with a PEO if they do not save you money from what you are currently doing.

PEO Services vs. Staff Leasing

Basically, the services are the same.  The difference is that staff leasing finds employees for you where peo services just take over your HR duties and you continue on as usual with your current staff.

In the end, PEO services may or may not be for you.  The cost should be cheaper with a PEO and you should also have a warm and fuzzy.  Trust your instincts and get as much information as possible.  We can help by finding the right PEO for you.  Contact us today!
