professional employer organization (PEO) like Group Management Services (GMS) can help streamline your essential business functions by centralizing administrative tasks, reducing manual work, and helping your business operate more efficiently. 

Here are practical ways a PEO can simplify your business and why partnering with GMS gives you a competitive edge. 

Streamline Payroll 

Managing payroll manually with spreadsheets or disconnected tools like Excel or QuickBooks is time-consuming, error-prone, and costly. A PEO centralizes payroll using integrated software, which automates wage calculations, direct deposits, and tax filings. 

GMS’ payroll solution processes payroll in minutes and handles all tax compliance tasks, reducing manual data entry and the risk of errors and penalties. This ensures your team is paid accurately and on time while freeing your business leaders from administrative headaches.  

Go Paperless With an HRIS 

Paper-based processes slow HR operations and make managing employee records and pay stubs more difficult than they need to be. With a Human Resources Information System (HRIS), you can centralize employee data, benefits enrollment, and payroll in a single online platform. 

GMS offers GMS Connect, a secure cloud-based HRIS that consolidates payroll, HR, and benefits data into a single system, giving you real-time visibility and easy access to employee information. Moving to a digital system simplifies record keeping, reduces errors, and eliminates filing cabinets full of paperwork.

Workplace accidents disrupt productivity and increase insurance costs. A PEO brings safety expertise and structured risk management that helps reduce claims and lower premiums. GMS supports your company with safety program development, audits, and compliance support, giving you proactive protection and a safer work environment. 

Avoid Compliance Fines 

Employment laws, tax codes, and workplace safety regulations change often. Staying compliant can feel overwhelming, but failing to do so can lead to costly fines. PEOs maintain compliance expertise, so you don’t have to. 

GMS professionals monitor changing regulations, update your policies, and assist with compliance requirements, reducing your legal risk and burden.
