In the realm of workforce management and HR solutions, Professional Employer Organizations (PEOs) and Employer of Record (EOR) services play pivotal roles in helping businesses streamline operations, manage compliance, and navigate the complexities of employment. While both PEOs and EORs offer valuable support, understanding the nuanced differences between them is essential for businesses to make informed decisions and choose the right solution for their needs.

PEOs typically engage in a co-employment relationship with client businesses, providing a range of HR services and assuming certain employer responsibilities. Key characteristics of PEOs include:

Comprehensive HR Services: PEOs offer a suite of HR services, including payroll processing, benefits administration, HR compliance, risk management, and employee relations support.
