How to Check a PEO Before You Sign
- Check state registration. Some states require PEOs to register. Massachusetts, for example, requires registration with its Department of Labor Standards, and Nevada requires registration with the Labor Commissioner. Ask the provider for its registration number in your state and confirm it with the state agency. [client to confirm both state requirements against the agency websites before publishing.]
- Check IRS certification. The IRS publishes its list of certified PEOs at irs.gov/tax-professionals/cpeo-public-listings and updates it every quarter.
- Check the states covered. Ask for the list of states where the PEO runs payroll and offers benefits, and make sure yours are on it.
- Check workers’ compensation. Ask who provides the coverage in your state, because rules differ. Ohio, for example, runs workers’ compensation through a state fund.

FAQs
What is a PEO, exactly?
A PEO (Professional Employer Organization) enters into a co-employment arrangement with your business, becoming the employer of record for tax and insurance purposes while you keep control over daily operations and management. PEOs typically handle payroll, benefits, workers’ comp, and HR compliance — giving smaller businesses access to enterprise-level benefits by pooling employees across multiple clients.
How does a PEO compare to an ASO?
The key difference is co-employment. A PEO shares legal employer responsibilities with you, which lets it offer group-rate insurance and benefits. An ASO (Administrative Services Organization) provides similar payroll and HR support but without co-employment — you remain the sole employer, so you keep full control but typically can’t access the same pooled benefit rates.
When should a business choose a PEO over an ASO?
A PEO usually fits smaller businesses wanting better benefits and compliance support at rates they couldn’t get alone. An ASO tends to suit companies that already have solid benefits or HR systems and just need administrative help — without giving up employer-of-record status.
Is switching between a PEO and an ASO complicated?
It’s doable but takes planning. Moving from a PEO to an ASO means setting up your own payroll, workers’ comp, and benefits as the sole employer again. Moving from an ASO to a PEO is usually simpler, since you’re shifting into their existing co-employment setup. Timing the switch around a renewal period helps avoid disruptions.
Do I need a PEO with an office near me?
No. A PEO works with you by state, not by distance. It should be registered and operating in every state where you have employees, and it handles payroll, benefits and compliance for those states remotely.
How do I find PEO companies near me?
Choose your state or city above, read what PEOs typically charge there, then request quotes. We match you with vetted providers that serve your state, and you compare the quotes on the same basis.
Do PEOs cost more in some states?
Often, yes. State unemployment tax, workers’ compensation rules and local labor laws all change the price. See the PEO cost guide for ranges, and the state pages for local rules.
