April 23rd, 2012

The roofing industry as a whole has quite a few exposures to loss– and believe it or not, they aren’t all up on the roof! As the owner of a roofing company, you have likely encountered losses include employee injury, vehicle accidents, liability claims, and even third party claims by other company’s employees.

You know how to best protect your employees, but who’s there to protect you? Accidents do happen and while  workers compensation rates can literally be “through the roof,” PEO Advantage can help.

Workers Comp Solutions for North Carolina!

April 4th, 2012

If you own a roofing, trucking, manufacturing, staffing, landscaping, construction, HVAC, plumbing, painting, maintenance or cleaning business, you are probably well aware of the rising costs of workers’comp.  Owning a North Carolina business that is considered high risk can severely stifle your cash flow.

With insurer results weakening due to rising injury expenses, insurers are passing costs on to North Carolina employers of all sizes, with smaller employers feeling the greatest impact. High costs result from high state-regulated rates, and requirements for large down payments and audits. Traditional workers’ comp policies require up to 50% down payment which adversely impacts cash flow, and polices are audited annually to make sure that actual wages paid to employees per code were estimated accurately at the policy’s inception. A company whose policy was rated for less than actual wages will be forced to come out of pocket for the difference in a lump sum.

Given  your specific line of work, accidents unfortunately may be unavoidable, regardless of how much you protect your employees. But you do have options for more affordable workers’ comp coverage. Although rate increases are occurring, insurer competition remains a factor in pricing—and partnering with the PEO Advantage North Carolina branch in Holly Springs, will introduce extremely convenient employee leasing solutions to business owners in the Triangle and Triad areas.

Why Workers’ Comp May Be Costing You a Bundle…

November 1st, 2011

With insurer results weakening due to rising injury expenses and the unstable condition of the economy, insurers are passing costs on to employers of all sizes, with smaller employers feeling the greatest impact.  If you run a construction, HVAC, plumbing, painting, roofing, trucking, manufacturing, staffing, landscaping or maintenance or cleaning business, you are probably well aware of the rising costs of workers’ comp.
