IES Clients are More Productive
Business owners typically want to focus their time and energy on the “business of their business” and not on the “business of employment.”
Most business owners don’t have the time, patience training and skills to properly manage human resource issues, payroll and accounting, regulatory compliance, or risk management, insurance and employee benefit programs.
Even for the business that has a human resource department, IES as a professional employer organization provides valuable, time saving and complementary expertise and services.
Additionally, IES provides the employer and their worksite employees with coverage under the entire spectrum of employment laws and regulations, including federal, state, and local discrimination laws, Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, Age Discrimination in Employment Act, ADA, HIPAA, Equal Pay Act, and COBRA.
How does a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) work? In the relationship with IES, a worksite employee, and a client company, there exist a co-employment relationship in which both IES and the client company have an employment relationship with the worker.
The PEO and client company contractually allocate and share traditional employer responsibility and liabilities. IES assumes responsibility for the “business of employment” including:
- Risk management
- Human resource issues
- Employment law compliance
- Payroll processing, filing, and compliance
- Employee tax filing
- A complete human resource and employee benefit package to the worksite employee
- Directing, managing and controlling worksite employees in manufacturing, production, and delivery of its products and services
- Setting pay and bonus plans
