CLEAR Employer Services: Your Virtual HR Department
“A PEO is one of the best-kept secrets of many successful small businesses.”
That’s according to an article in Entrepreneur Magazine, which highlights the benefits of working with a Professional Employer Organization such as CLEAR Employer Services of Langhorne. CLEAR founder Joe Carfagno couldn’t agree more.
“Small business owners want to spend time on their core business, not on the business of being an employer,” says Carfagno. “Being an employer adds 147 things to your to-do list. CLEAR can free you up to do the things you love to do, not what you have to do.”
PEOs are ideal for companies with between 10 and 200 employees. They can cost-effectively take care of all HR needs, reduce the administrative burden, control medical benefit costs and help attract and retain top talent.
Why CLEAR?
“I spent my entire career in payroll and PEO, working for a large corporation,” Carfagno explains. “But their service wasn’t as responsive as I thought it should be. CLEAR is finely-tuned to provide small businesses with speed, quality and value.”
The company has two divisions. CLEAR Payroll Solution manages the complexities of small business payroll quickly, accurately, consistently and cost-effectively. CLEAR PEO is a virtual HR department with deep knowledge of everything from the Affordable Care Act to employment law to flexible spending accounts.
Business owners who are interested in a payroll provider or PEO should ask some key questions, starting with service: How often do you change account managers? What type of personal support will my employees receive? What is your client retention rate?
Also ask about value, advises Carfagno. “One of the reasons we’re named CLEAR is because we are fully transparent. Be sure to review sample invoices from providers you are considering. You don’t have to pay huge fees for quality.”
