Myths

How a PEO Differs from Other HR Solutions

Have more questions?

Contact us

While traditional HR outsourcing provides specific services à la carte, a PEO offers comprehensive solutions through co-employment, including access to better benefits, shared liability, and integrated HR systems.

In-house HR departments often lack the specialized expertise, economies of scale, and technological resources that a PEO provides. With Amplify, you get an entire team of HR specialists for less than the cost of building an equivalent in-house department.

Payroll providers process payroll and taxes but don't offer the comprehensive HR support, benefits administration, compliance expertise, or risk management services that come with a PEO partnership.

Benefits brokers help you select insurance plans but don't provide the broader HR support, technology, compliance expertise, or ongoing administration that a PEO delivers.

Staffing agencies provide temporary workers, while PEOs enhance your relationship with your existing employees through improved benefits, HR support, and administrative efficiency.

Unlike employee leasing (where workers are temporarily assigned to your company), a PEO establishes a long-term co-employment relationship with your existing employees, providing comprehensive HR support.
