According to information provided by the Small Business Administration (SBA), there are over 300,000 small businesses in Alabama, providing employment for nearly 800,000 workers. If you’re one of those entrepreneurs, you know that running a small business is a lot of work. As your company grows, you may find yourself with less time to be hands-on with your business because of increasing HR and accounting paperwork.
The need to get back to business is why so many small businesses in Alabama are turning to professional employer organizations (PEOs). PEOs offer HR outsourcing services that are designed to be on par with those available at larger companies, but at prices that won’t break the bank for smaller businesses.
If you need help finding a PEO, turn to NetPEO. Our PEO brokers are here to understand the needs of growing businesses just like yours.

Your Growing Alabama Business Can Benefit from a PEO
While your business is growing, you may not feel certain that a PEO is right for you. Maybe you’re concerned that you don’t have enough employees or too many to warrant an HR outsourcing service. You may also be concerned that there are no PEOs operating in Alabama with experience handling businesses in your field.
Every Small Business Can Use a PEO
NetPEO’s brokers have helped small businesses for all sizes find the right PEO to help with their HR outsourcing needs. We’ve worked with clients who’ve had as few as 5 employees get the HR and accounting help that they need. Our brokers have also helped clients with nearly 500 employees solve backroom paperwork problems.
No Industry is Too Niche for a PEO
Small businesses account for more than 99% of all businesses operating in Alabama today. While your business is unique, many of the HR and accounting challenges you face are also faced by businesses throughout the state. Our PEO brokers have helped find the right partner for businesses working across a wide range of industries, including:
- Agriculture
- Manufacturing
- Law
- Retail
- Food services
- Construction
When you sign up with a PEO, you can trust that their HR professionals are well versed in the specific regulations governing your industry. They will also provide expertise regarding major labor laws, both at the federal and state level, affecting all small businesses in Alabama.
PEOs Offer a Wide Range of HR Solutions
No small business has quite the same needs as any other. Fortunately, there are HR outsourcing solutions for all sorts of business needs.
Payroll and Benefits Solutions
One of the most common sorts of solutions PEOs provide to small businesses is through payroll and benefits administration. In some cases, the PEO merely provides the latest software and verifies the information entered into the system. Other PEOs offer the opportunity to pass all payroll and benefits administration duties on to their trained HR professionals.
Employee Self-Service Site
Want your employees to have easier access to their payroll and benefits information? How about an easy way to give employees new training or help them acquire new certifications? An employee self-service site is a great tool to empower your employees. With a PEO partner, you can have a custom site built for your employees with any information you’d like, and the IT professionals with your PEO will maintain the site on your behalf.
Workers’ Compensation
It’s an unfortunate fact that workers sometimes get hurt on the job, even when you take all the necessary precautions. A PEO can be there to help you with the paperwork that comes with handling the workers’ compensation claim. That way, you won’t get weighed down in extra paperwork and can rest easy knowing the process is being handled by experts with knowledge of handling workers’ compensation claims.
