A professional employer organization, otherwise known as a PEO, is a company that outsources employees for other companies so the primary company does not have to be responsible for these people and or benefits.

"The Professional Employer Organization can be found at more than 700 places over the United States. While it is essentially a US based organization, similar offices can be found in Germany."

Using a professional employer organization helps companies to locate areas of improvements, ways to enhance the company, and gain faster and accurate reports. By outsourcing to a professional employer organization, companies notice an increase in morale and less of a turnover within the company staff.

"The National Association of Professional Employer Organizations is a collection of good PEOs. You can also find them using their acronym, NAPEO. On their website, there is a search option allowing you to find a professional employer organization in the United States, Canada, Malaysia, or the Ukraine."
