Frequently Asked Questions About Our Services

Who is BOSSupport?

BOSSupport, is a leading Administrative Service Organization providing HR services to small and mid sized businesses.

What is the difference between BOSSupport and a PEO?

BOSSupport does not enter into a co-employment arrangement with its clients as is required by a PEO.  BOSSupport offers many of the same administrative support functions as a PEO but on a menu driven basis, i.e., the client can choose the functions it wishes to outsource--and only pays for those services.  A PEO bundles its services and client companies must pay for all services offered.  Finally, BOSSupport, through its network of qualified brokers, provides services to enable companies to offer creative and comprehensive benefits.  Companies can choose benefit plans that meet their needs.  With a PEO, the company must participate in the bundled, national plan.
