It's only natural to outsource tasks that are, or are quickly becoming, a burden to your business.
It makes good business sense to outsource those functions that are not revenue producing.
You need to – and want to – focus on your business, your goals, your development and growth plans, and your bottom-line.
You also know what you and your company do best, and what you're better off outsourcing.
According to "The Outsourcing Institute", an increasing number of companies, both large and small,
are outsourcing a variety of non-strategic functions so that they can concentrate on more competitive opportunities:
A growing number of companies are outsourcing human resources administration and management to a Professional
Employer Organization, or PEO.
There are more than 1,000 PEOs nationwide, with two to three million employees. Their collective payrolls are
estimated at $18 billion. C2 Portfolio Essentials (C2) is one of the nation's leading PEOs.
Why invest time and money in the administrative details of human resources, benefits, filings and other
employee issues when you can turn them over to C2? Why go through the pain, frustration, and hassles of
personnel issues when you don't have to? C2 provides business owners with access to experts in all areas
of human resources -- employee relations, payroll and taxes, health benefits administration, 401(k) administration,
workplace safety and regulatory compliance and much, much more. We deliver these services personally through
dedicated HR teams and never through call centers.
Outsourcing “people strategies” can help you gain a competitive advantage, but you need professionals who can cut
through the clutter of HR practices to learn which have the most positive impact on your business. C2's professionals
can help you decide which strategies are best suited to your needs and then help you implement them through our
HR Shared Services model
to achieve your organizational goals.
Outsourcing your human resources department may be a new idea to you, but it isn't new to successful businesses.
The fact is that thousands of small to medium-size companies throughout the United States are enjoying the benefits –
both financial and administrative – that come from outsourcing their HR functions.
Labor cost unpredictability can be a business owner's biggest and most intractable challenge.
With a few exceptions, such as FICA and FUTA, most of the elements of a company's labor costs,
benefits, workers' compensation, compliance costs, liability exposure and the rest - are highly
volatile and can adversely affect a company's profit margins and its ability to conduct accurate financial forecasting.
Entering into a
co-employment relationship with C2 can help you stabilize your labor costs,
which in turn tames downstream cost volatility. The results: your margins are better protected and your
financial forecasts more accurate. The keys are shared liability, proactive risk management and expert
regulatory compliance. All these are core elements of the C2 HR solution.
Statistical analysis by Watson Wyatt, who developed the Human Capital Index to provide a
standard for measuring a company's people practices, shows a clear relationship between the
effectiveness of a company's people practices and the creation of superior market value. Focusing on people does pay off.
Strong human resources practices have the potential to increase your company's productivity and profitability,
but HR management has become a colossal task, demanding considerable resources.
Legal and regulatory compliance
has become an overwhelming task, and time spent on administrative obligations is time spent away from growing your business.
Simplify your operations and refocus on your core business
If you're like most employers, the chances are, much – if not most – of your time is spent dealing
with the actual business of running your business. Too much time and attention is spent dealing with
personnel and employment management issues, rather than on the things that will increase your business
and bring in new sales and customers. C2 allows you to leverage your strengths and refocus on your product
and delivery model. After all, no one ever went into business just to deal with the red tape and regulations
of being an employer.
Let us guide you out of the liability minefield
We all work in a very litigious society, where employee lawsuits – legitimate or otherwise --
are too often considered just another cost of doing business. At the same time, cumbersome,
constantly changing federal, state and local regulations leave you scrambling to avoid costly compliance
issues. Working in conjunction some of the nation's most respected employment law firms,
C2 can dramatically reduce your exposure to liability, and guide you to full compliance with all applicable
regulations.

We don't need to tell you that the cost of keeping your workforce working is going up every year.

hitting your numbers and meeting your team's goals and objectives. C2's comprehensive model for

Leave Human Resources to the professionals
Fortune 500 companies have the financial strength and resources to hire a top-notch,
experienced Human Resources staff, and provide a full spectrum of top-quality employee benefits plans.
Unfortunately, most companies don't have the resources or expertise necessary to build a professional
in-house HR department, or provide the benefits that will attract and retain quality employees.
Partnering with C2 for your human resources services gives you a
state-of-the-art HR staff at your fingertips,
providing all the services you'd expect from a top in-house department. And a level of
employee benefits usually found at only the largest employers.
