Most Georgia business owners do not relish the idea of handling the mountains of paperwork and red tape that come with human resources issues. Still, HR is an important aspect of business that can help companies avoid costly lawsuits, loss of productive workers, legal fines, and other unnecessary expenses. For help with these issues, business owners often turn to HR outsourcing firms like professional employer organizations (PEOs) in Georgia.
Unfortunately, a common problem that many employers and business owners face is that there are many different PEOs available. Having such a saturated market is good for the business owner in that they have a free choice of the PEO they want, but the process of discovering and choosing a PEO can be tiresome. As a PEO broker in Augusta, NetPEO works by coming alongside business owners in need and pairing them up with a PEO from our nationwide network.
At NetPEO, we understand that finding the right PEO can take hours of phone conversations, research, and drafting an acceptable co-employment arrangement. That is why we help companies by doing the background work for them. We have experience helping business owners in a wide variety of industries, including:
- Aviation

A PEO Can Provide Services to My Company
Professional employer organizations are HR outsourcing options. They handle the entire range of human resources issues, from simple recruitment policies and payroll management all the way to drafting procedure manuals for client businesses. In NetPEO’s nationwide network, our PEOs have more than two centuries of combined experience in the HR field, giving us a wide pool of talented HR professionals to choose from. Services offered by our networked PEOs include the following.
Employee Benefits Packages
Due to the nature of co-employment, a PEO can consider all of its client companies’ employees as its own employees. This gives the PEO a better bargaining position to secure top-tier benefits packages and allows the PEO to spread the cost of those benefits across a wider number of employees. Better benefits plus a lower individual cost equals a recipe for retaining key talent.
Legal Compliance
The business world is highly regulated, with issues like OSHA, the Affordable Care Act, and the Family Medical Leave Act dictating how payments and benefits are supposed to be administered and provided. Though these laws often are complex and require legal degrees to understand, business owners can rest on the expertise of our networked PEOs.
Liability Reduction
Owning and operating a business often puts an undue burden of responsibility on the owner. For example, workplace injuries or inappropriate activity could lead to lawsuits against the owner if these issues are not properly dictated and handled via coherent corporate policies and procedure manuals. At NetPEO, we can find your company a PEO that will be able to help you reduce your liability and create sound behavioral policies and safety procedures.
Workers’ Compensation
When injured in the course of their duties on the job, a worker is legally entitled to receive benefits through workers’ compensation programs. While this may be a difficult and legally complex issue for employers to handle on top of their other duties as the business owner, our PEOs can help you handle your workers’ compensation cases to ensure compliance.
