Total HR is out there with you...

Total HR offers a complete HR outsourcing service. We are also referred to as a Professional employer organization (PEO).  However, Total HR is somewhat unique from the traditional PEO model.  We have evolved the original PEO concept to make it more dependable and reliable to our clients.

Bottom-line Total HR enables clients to cost-effectively outsource the management of human resources, employee benefits, payroll and workers' compensation. Subsequently, they can focus on their core competencies to maintain and grow their bottom line.

Total HR provides integrated services to effectively manage critical human resource responsibilities and employer risks for clients. We deliver these services by establishing and maintaining an employer relationship with the employees at the client's worksite and by contractually assuming certain employer rights, responsibilities, and risk.

Businesses across America have discovered the incredible value of HR outsourcing because they provide:
 

	Relief from the burden of employment administration.
	A wide range of personnel management solutions through a team of professionals.
	Improved employment practices, compliance and risk management to reduce liabilities.
	Access to a comprehensive employee benefits package, allowing clients to be competitive in the labor market.
	Assistance to improve productivity and profitability.

Reinventing Outsourced HR

The co-employment relationship involves a contractual allocation and sharing of employer responsibilities between Total HR and the client. This shared employment relationship is called co-employment.

Businesses today need help managing increasingly complex employee related matters, including employee relations, health benefits, workers' compensation claims, payroll, payroll tax compliance, and unemployment insurance claims. They contract with Total HR to assume these responsibilities and provide expertise in human resources management. This allows our clients to concentrate on the operational and revenue-producing side of its operations.

The chart below illustrates the co-employment relationship. 

	The employer (Client) owns and controls the operations of the business and is the ultimate decision-maker regarding employee performance  issues (1).
	However, through a contractual agreement between the client and Total HR (2), Certain HR responsibilities are assigned to Total HR (3) Certain others are shared by both the client and Total HR (4), Others remain with the employer (1).

 It is actually a very simple agreement that lets each party do what they do best.  Employees continue to be responsible for doing their jobs effectively; the employer continues to manage for performance and business growth, while Total HR deals with all the background issues that need to be handled.  You keep focused on your goal while things just get done the way they should.
