Why Small Businesses Are Turning to PEOs — And How NetPEO Can Help

Running a small business is no small task. Between managing employees, staying compliant with ever-changing labor laws, handling payroll, and offering competitive benefits, it can feel like you need a full HR department — even if you only have 10 employees.

That’s where a PEO (Professional Employer Organization) comes in.

At NetPEO, we specialize in helping small businesses like yours partner with the right PEO — saving you time, reducing your HR headaches, and helping your company grow.


What Is a PEO?

A PEO is a company that partners with small and medium-sized businesses to provide HR support, payroll administration, employee benefits, risk management, and compliance assistance. When you work with a PEO, you’re entering into a co-employment relationship — meaning the PEO shares certain employer responsibilities with you.

This allows you to:

  • Offload HR tasks

  • Gain access to big-business employee benefits

  • Stay compliant with federal and state employment laws

  • Focus more on running your business, not on paperwork


Why Small Businesses Choose PEOs

Many small business owners think PEOs are only for large companies. The truth is, small businesses benefit the most from PEO services.

Here’s why:

✅ Save Time

PEOs handle routine HR tasks like payroll, benefits administration, and new hire paperwork — freeing up hours every week.

✅ Reduce Costs

Small businesses that use a PEO save an average of $1,775 per employee per year, according to NAPEO. That’s money you can reinvest into growing your business.

✅ Attract and Retain Talent

Want to offer Fortune 500-level benefits (like health, dental, vision, 401(k), and more)? A PEO gives you access to group rates and premium benefit packages you could never get on your own.

✅ Stay Compliant

From labor law posters to ACA reporting, a PEO keeps your business on the right side of the law — and out of trouble.
