Small business owners consistently face the same recruitment challenge: losing top talent to Fortune 500 companies that offer comprehensive benefits packages they assume they can't afford. Have you ever watched a great employee leave for better benefits or struggled to compete with larger companies during hiring? This is called the ‘Benefits Gap’ and it affects thousands of growing businesses.
You can now offer the same Fortune 500-level benefits that large corporations provide, such as comprehensive health insurance, robust retirement plans, and premium perks, without the Fortune 500 budget. This transformation is possible through professional employer organization (PEO) partnerships like those offered by ABO.
Read on to learn how you can access enterprise-level benefits at affordable rates, transforming your ability to attract and retain top talent while competing directly with industry giants.
Professional Employer Organizations like ABO make Fortune 500-level benefits accessible by pooling small businesses together to create the buying power of large corporations. Here's how it works:
ABO combines hundreds of small businesses to negotiate rates typically reserved for Fortune 500 companies. So you get:
Small businesses shopping individually face significantly higher costs and limited options compared to Fortune 500 companies that leverage comprehensive benefit packages to reduce turnover and attract top talent.
The cost of not competing extends beyond immediate expenses. The cost of replacing an employee costs more than you think, and not just in the hard costs, but also in the knowledge they have. Plus, the cost of hiring a new employee is 16-33% of their annual salary, making competitive benefits a profitable investment rather than just an expense.
PEO partnerships allow businesses to provide top-tier benefits while streamlining HR operations, enhancing compliance, and reducing employee turnover—all while saving time and money.
Most small businesses save on benefits costs while dramatically improving coverage quality. The savings come from:
Yes, PEO partnerships make comprehensive benefits accessible regardless of company size. Small businesses gain access to the same insurance carriers and plan options that Fortune 500 companies use.
Most PEO partnerships can implement comprehensive benefits within 30-60 days, including employee enrollment, carrier setup, and payroll integration.
Professional transition management ensures that there are no coverage gaps. Employees often see immediate improvements in plan options and reduced costs.
