Human Resources Roundtable: Exploring the Benefits of a PEO: Support for the HR Role You Inherited

Many HR professionals didn’t set out to work in HR—it became part of the job along the way. If you’re responsible for people operations, payroll, benefits, compliance, or employee issues without formal HR training or a full team behind you, you’re not alone. This session is designed with you in mind.

We’ll explore how a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) can act as an extension of your HR function—helping shoulder administrative work, reduce compliance risk, and provide access to experienced HR guidance and robust employee benefits. The presentation will walk through what a PEO actually does, how co-employment works in practice, and the types of support HR teams can expect, from payroll and benefits administration to employee relations, risk management, and HR technology.
Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of when a PEO can provide meaningful relief and protection for HR staff, what questions to ask when evaluating providers, and how to assess whether this model is the right level of support for their organization’s size, complexity, and resources.
