What is the difference between the PEO/co-employment services model and the HRO model?

The co-employment services model is based on a commitment by the PEO company to share employment-related risk with clients, thereby reducing legal risk and financial exposure for clients. Human Resources Outsourcing (HRO) companies are not employers and therefore cannot share employment-related risk which leaves clients open to increased legal risk and financial exposure.
