A PEO is a Professional Employer Organization that provides comprehensive HR solutions for small, medium and large-size businesses, helping businesses to concentrate on their own businesses by assuming many of the headaches of Workers’ Compensation, Payroll Adminstration, Benefit Administration, Human Resources, and governmental regulatory compliance. National statistics* show that small businesses that work with a PEO grow 7 to 9 percent faster, have employee turnover that is 10 to 14 percent lower, and are 50 percent less likely to go out of business. The return on investment of using a PEO, in costs savings alone, is 27.3 percent.

As business owners need to focus their time and energy on the “business of THEIR business” and not on the “business of employment”, Prosperity PEO can help make that balance a reality. As businesses grow, most owners do not have the necessary payroll and accounting skills, the knowledge of regulatory compliance, or the backgrounds in risk management, insurance and employee benefit programs to meet the demands of being an employer.
