2007 is going to be an interesting year for our 12 year old business. At the end of 2006 we had 20 employees in 12 states. The administrative burden of compliance was starting to become a little much for PICS so at the end of 2006 we started to explore other options. We came across the concept of co-employment and a PEO or Professional Employment Organization. A PEO enters into a co-employment relationship with a company and they share some of the legal responsibilities of employment. In particular they are legally responsible for the payroll, benefits and insurance for the employees.
So what does this mean for PICS? In means that as of January 1, 2007 we no longer have any employees - all of our employees as well as my partner and i now work for Gevity and PICS is now considered the “worksite” employer.
It also means that we now have an in-sourced HR consultant available for our workforce and to help us attract and retain new talent, to work with us to become and stay complient in the 12 states we have employees in and to continue to build a world class company where our employees will want to work and grow with us.
