PEO services

Introduction

Every business dreams of expanding their market overseas, especially if you are aware of the market potential for your business in another country. If you plan to expand your business to Indonesia, but setting up an Indonesian company is not a viable option for various reasons right now, hiring a PEO services company may be the best solution for you. This article provides everything there is to know regarding the PEO services in Indonesia.


What is PEO?

A PEO (Professional Employer Organisation) services provider handles various employee administration tasks on behalf of another company, such as payroll processing and benefits administration. Some PEO services providers also provide strategic services.It’s critical to research and compare providers’ capabilities beforehand to minimise risks. 


How does a PEO work?

In a co-employment contract, the company and the PEO services provider share specific employer responsibilities. Usually, the PEO services provider processes payroll, withholds and pays payroll taxes, manages workers’ compensation coverage, administers employee benefits, and provides human resource guidance. It leaves you to manage day-to-day business operations, such as providing products and services to customers and deciding which employees to hire or fire. Although a PEO services provider can also handle HR administration, this does not imply that you relinquish ownership or complete control of your company to them.

An experienced PEO services provider would not:

  • make decisions for your company independently;
  • assist in promotion, sales, or product delivery;
  • set pay rates, hours, and schedules.

You can’t be an expert on everything. With our dedicated team of specialists on your side, you will be better prepared for whatever comes your way. We will assist you in making crucial and complex employment-related decisions ranging from compliance to employee relations to a pandemic. For example, an employee claim or a regulatory breach can strain resources, affect reputations, and divert attention away from profitable company activities. Suppose you already have an in-house HR individual or team. In that case, we will collaborate on both a strategic and administrative level.


2. Minimise costs and expenses

Employers bear additional expenses and the employee’s wages, such as payroll taxes, worker’s compensation, insurance, etc. In some instances, PEO will provide you with high-quality, more affordable health insurance, as well as BPJS, dental coverage, retirement benefits, and other employee perks. 


3. Improve efficiency and reduce turnover

We provide data analytics and benchmarking services to give you insights into your workforce. This form of assistance will assist you in planning long-term strategies for responding to shifts in employment demographics, and you will be able to better respond to critical questions such as:

  • How much do you pay specific workers, and how does that compare to the market?
  • Which skill sets are ideally matched to current job vacancies?
  • Which departments need more personnel?
  • How does your turnover compare to that of your competitors?

This type of information will assist you in realigning your business strategies to increase employee satisfaction and minimise turnover.
