We’re proud to introduce our newest affinity partner, The PEO Group.

What is a PEO?  A professional employer organization (PEO) provides integrated services to effectively manage critical human resource responsibilities and employer risks for clients. A PEO provides a service under which an employer can outsource employee management tasks, such as employee benefits, payroll and workers’ compensation.
