PEO Services for Specialty Trades

See how our PEO services for specialty trades can help you grow your business, protect one of your most important assets (your employees), and improve your bottom line.

Being an employer has never been more complicated. As state and federal regulations continue to evolve and become increasingly more intricate, more specialty trade businesses are sending their human resources administrative tasks to outside HR firms to free up their precious time.

As business owners look for ways to reduce health insurance costs and improve coverage, many are turning to Professional Employer Organizations (PEOs) for a better solution.

A PEO typically also offers things like commuter benefits, 401(k), disability, Health Savings Accounts, life insurance and so on, options you might have received with a major employer with a full human resources department. Basically, you’re hiring HR when you hire a PEO.

Running a skilled trades business requires balancing job sites, project timelines, and workforce needs—all while trying to stay on top of regulations and paperwork. A PEO helps you get out of the back office and back to the job site by taking HR off your plate.

Whether you’re managing a team of electricians, HVAC techs, plumbers, or general contractors, partnering with a PEO makes it easier to scale operations, stay compliant, and keep your workers happy.

Benefits of partnering with a PEO in the trades:

• Offload payroll, tax filings, and workers’ comp paperwork
• Provide big-company benefits that help retain skilled tradespeople
• Reduce HR headaches during seasonal hiring and high turnover
• Get expert help staying compliant with OSHA and labor laws
• Manage everything from job site injuries to onboarding in one secure platform
