THE RELATIONSHIP IS KEY
The relationship between a PEO and a client is a co-employment
arrangement. The client retains ownership of the company and control
over its operations, while the PEO will assume the responsibilities
and liabilities associated with payroll, payroll taxes, workers’ compensation,
and benefits.
In general terms,
the PEO focuses on employment-related issues and the client is responsible
for the actual business operations.
