Employee & Executive Benefits Plans
Build an unbeatable workforce with a benefit plan that works as hard as they do.
Talented employees are an invaluable resource, and high-quality benefit plans help ensure that your staff grows with you for years to come. Studies show that group health insurance and employee benefits help to decrease employee absenteeism and improve morale. Many of these plans even encourage and reward employees for living a healthy lifestyle.
In addition to employee retention, businesses can receive tax breaks for the contributions made to employee benefit plans, while enjoying group purchasing power and lower rates for everyone.
Group Health Insurance and other employee benefits are an essential tool in cultivating a dynamic workforce. Blackford & Associates Insurance is your insurance partner, ready to customize a plan that is unique to your business needs.
PEO Services & HR Solutions
A professional employer organization (PEO) is an organization that enters into a joint-employment relationship with an employer by leasing employees to the employer, thereby allowing the PEO to share and manage many employee-related responsibilities and liabilities. This allows employers to outsource their human resource functions, such as employee benefits, compensation and payroll administration, workers' compensation, and employment taxes.
There can be significant advantages of a PEO, especially for a small employer that may not have the HR expertise or capabilities for these often time consuming HR necessities.
A PEO service can provide many important HR functions, including;
- Benefits administration.
- Recruiting and hiring.
- Payroll administration.
- Unemployment administration.
- Workers' compensation administration.
- Compliance assistance.
- Drug testing programs.
- Family and Medical Leave Act administration.
