FAQ's
1.What is a PEO?
A Professional Employer Organization (PEO) is a company that partners with businesses to provide comprehensive HR solutions. PEOs handle tasks like payroll, employee benefits, compliance, and workers’ compensation, allowing business owners to focus on growth and operations.
2.How does Beehive PEO differ from a PEO provider?
Beehive PEO is a broker, not a provider. We don’t offer PEO services directly. Instead, we work with multiple top-tier PEO providers to match your business with the one that best fits your unique needs. Think of us as your guide to finding the perfect PEO partner.
3. What are the benefits of using a PEO broker like Beehive PEO?
As a PEO broker, we save you time and effort by researching and vetting PEO providers for you. We ensure you get tailored solutions at competitive prices, and our unbiased recommendations mean we work for you—not the PEO.
4. How do I know if my business needs a PEO?
If you’re struggling to manage HR tasks, payroll, employee benefits, or compliance, a PEO could be the perfect solution. PEOs are especially beneficial for small and mid-sized businesses that want to offer competitive benefits while reducing administrative burdens.
5. What industries do you work with?
We work with businesses across various industries, including healthcare, construction, technology, retail, professional services, and more. Our network of PEOs offers specialized solutions tailored to the unique needs of different industries.
6. How much does a PEO cost?
The cost of PEO services varies depending on the provider and the size of your business. Most PEOs charge a percentage of your total payroll or a flat per-employee fee. Beehive PEO helps you find cost-effective solutions that fit your budget.
7. Will I lose control of my business if I work with a PEO?
No, you retain full control over your business. A PEO handles administrative tasks like HR, payroll, and compliance, but all decisions about hiring, firing, and company operations remain with you.
