Not every PEO is set up specifically for every business.
There are certain industries that have higher levels of compliance, think about the trucking and transportation industry. The level of human resources necessary is greater. Why? Well, for this industry, OSHA, Department of Transportation and Department of Labor all need to be kept informed of what every trucking company is doing, is hauling, who is driving, where are they going, where are they from...the list is long and daunting. As it should be. We don't want a nation of hopped-up, multi-ton 18-wheelers with HAZMAT loads tumbling down our countries freeways at 75+ MPH!
The point is, the HR outsourcing provider, or PEO, that takes on that risk will have to be well-versed and up-to-date with all of the latest federal and State laws regarding the hauling of goods.
The PEO's that focus on that industry are experts in this area. However, your local PEO, with a workforce of plumbers, electricians, construction and other blue-collar employees, will not. And vice-versa.
Then again, the PEO that is focused on high-tech, high-touch, employee-driven benefits packages is another niche.
