Just what is Staff Leasing / PEO Services / Professional Employer Organization / Worker or Employee Leasing?
Basically, these terms are synonymous. Employee leasing, worker leasing, etc. is an alternative for employers to manage the administrative functions of their workers. Client companies enter into a contract with the Professional Employer Organization to hire their workforce. These may either be newly hired employees or longstanding personnel. This outsourcing of business & human resources process often eliminates the entire personnel department of an organization. The employee leasing company then takes on the responsibility of the payroll, employment taxes, workers compensation & risk management, and employee benefits.
