End-to-End Canadian HR services
Hire, pay & manage all Canadian HR operations without an HR. Leverage our Canadian expertise to navigate Canadian employment with ease.
Expanding your business to Canada but don’t have the budget or expertise to hire in-house HR team?
To run your team in Canada, you know you need to have Human Resources in place because Canada Employment laws are quite rigid and regulated. These complexities vary across provinces, requiring tailored compliance strategies that can pose both legal and financial risks if mishandled. It would be great to hire an HR Specialist, Recruiter and Payroll Manager but at this early stage of your business you just want to outsource to a Canadian HR expert.
A Professional Employer Organization can help.
A Professional Employer Organization, or PEO, is a third-party entity that partners with businesses to manage various aspects of their human resources, payroll, benefits administration, and compliance. Essentially, a PEO becomes an outsourced HR partner for the employers, taking on responsibilities such as payroll processing, tax withholding, and providing HR support.
What is included with PEO?
Payroll Administration
Human Resource Administration
Supplemental Health Benefits Administration
HRIS Accessibility
Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) Benefits Administration
Time and Attendance Management
Workers' Compensation Administration
Compliance with Canadian employment laws and tax obligations
