The Advantages of Workers’ Compensation with a PEO

The advantages of workers’ compensation insurance with a PEO are many, including “pay as you go,” no upfront premium, and the PEO performing end-of-policy audits.?

These highlights will help you see why having workers’ compensation through a PEO is a major benefit:

• Keeps the workplace safe: Your PEO can help you maintain a safe environment and drug-free workforce. The PEO can assist with OSHA trainings , educating your workforce with manuals, claims management materials, and return to work duties.?
• Knows and follows state laws: Each state has different laws about workers’ compensation. A PEO helps you understand and comply with your state laws and keep up with updates that may impact your workforce.
• Posts notices in the workplace: Laws require employers to post notices where employees can see them regarding workers’ compensation coverage. Your PEO is responsible for providing this so you don’t have to worry about it.
• Follows the applicable claims process: PEOs manage the required process for submitting claims and reporting an injury or illness at work. This helps you stay diligent about the records you keep and your claims and return to work policy.

Your PEO ensures you regularly review your workers’ compensation coverage. Changes happen in the industry all the time, and your employees’ needs may change, too.?
