According to the National Association of Professional Employer Organizations' 2025 Annual Tracking Survey, a majority of businesses now outsource core HR functions, with 61% outsourcing health insurance, 56% outsourcing payroll, and 50% outsourcing retirement benefits, primarily to save time and focus on core business growth. BBSI has presented its services to address this trend, pairing accurate payroll processing with benefits access and compliance oversight that many small and mid-sized businesses find difficult to manage internally.
The payroll component covers wage calculation, tax withholding, direct deposit, and year-end reporting, reducing the risk of errors that commonly result in penalties or employee disputes. A BBSI representative notes that multi-state payroll support is also included, addressing a growing need as more businesses hire remote and distributed teams across different tax jurisdictions.
On the benefits side, BBSI's services provide access to group health insurance, retirement plans, and other employee benefits typically available only to larger employers. Pooling employees across multiple client businesses allows smaller companies to offer more competitive benefits packages without negotiating directly with insurance carriers, which can strengthen employee retention and recruitment efforts.
Compliance support includes guidance on wage and hour laws, workplace safety regulations, and employment documentation requirements at both the state and federal levels. As labor regulations continue to change, this component is designed to help business owners stay current without dedicating internal staff solely to compliance monitoring.
Beyond these services, BBSI also supports clients with workers' compensation coverage, risk management consulting, staffing and recruiting, and its proprietary myBBSI technology platform for managing HR tasks online.
