| | May 07, 2008 | | StaffScapes is a Denver based Professional Employer Organization serving small to medium sized companies in the Colorado region. |
| | | Professional employer organizations (PEOs) enable clients to cost-effectively outsource the management of human resources, employee benefits, payroll and workers' compensation. PEO clients focus on their core competencies to maintain and grow their bottom line. Businesses today need help managing increasingly complex employee related matters such as health benefits, workers' compensation claims, payroll, payroll tax compliance, and unemployment insurance claims. They contract with a PEO to assume these responsibilities and provide expertise in human resources management. This allows the PEO client to concentrate on the operational and revenue-producing side of its operations. A PEO provides integrated services to effectively manage critical human resource responsibilities and employer risks for clients. A PEO delivers these services by establishing and maintaining an employer relationship with the employees at the client's work site and by contractually assuming certain employer rights, responsibilities, and risk. Businesses across America have discovered the incredible value of PEOs because they provide: - Relief from the burden of employment administration.
- A wide range of personnel management solutions through a team of professionals.
- Improved employment practices, compliance and risk management to reduce liabilities.
- Access to a comprehensive employee benefits package, allowing clients to be competitive in the labor market.
- Assistance to improve productivity and profitability.

| | May 07, 2008 | | It is difficult to change from “the way things have been done.” Here are a few good reasons why it makes sense to talk to a PEO about partnering with, or creating strategies to use a PEO. | |
| | | Consolidation – Reduce the amount of employment related vendors you use, and use only one, the PEO. Greater Collaboration – More experience and expertise in human resources and employment issues than small businesses have on staff. Better use of personnel- Let your staff concentrate on what they were hired for, and let the PEO focus on the employment headaches. Stronger Compliance - PEOs stay on top of the ever changing employment laws and regulations. Document storage and maintenance- Employee files, I-9, HIPPA compliance, Added Value- Have the best systems and best people working for you to handle all employment needs Disaster Protection – Off-site storage and processing of employment related matters. |

| | April 10, 2008 | | Increase in consumer driven health plans reported in 2007 | A recent study conducted by the American Association of Preferred Provider Organizations (AAPPO) shows that participation in consumer driven health plans (CDHP) have increased. In 2007, enrollment in a CDHP grew 25 percent, to 12.5 million from 10 million in 2006. The majority of those CDHPs were based on a preferred provider organization (PPO) network, which is an increase of 2 percent from 2006. AAPPO also notes that “While large employers were the first to embrace the CDHP model, small employers are now helping to fuel the growth of CDHPs, with 7 percent of employers with fewer than 500 employees offering a CDHP in 2007 as compared to 5 percent in 2006” For more information from this study, go to AAPPO’s website at www.aappo.org. Also more information concerning consumer driven health plans can be received by contacting StaffScapes’ Benefits Department. | | |
| | April 09, 2008 | | Colorado Governor Signs NAPEO Tax Credit Bill | | Colorado Governor Bill Ritter has signed NAPEO-backed legislation that provides certainty for PEOs and client companies with regard to tax credits. HB 08-1034 will assure that PEO clients can receive tax credits. In certain situations, clients of PEOs had previously been denied these valuable tax credits because of the PEO arrangement. This new law is a collaborative effort by both NAPEO and the Department of Revenue. The new law is retroactive for tax credits to eligible employees hired on or after August 3, 2007. | | |
