What is an ASO?

 
Administrative Service Organizations (ASOs), also called “Hybrid Outsourcing”, are used by companies when they don’t want to move their entire HR organization to an outsource service provider. It allows for the business to outsource one or several difficult or time-intensive HR processes, such as payroll or benefits-plan administration. It is not uncommon for a business to have a relationship with multiple HR outsources, each experts in specific services.
 
Core Concepts of an administrative service organization (ASO):
  1. Functionally the same as a PEO
  2. No co-employment relationship
  3. No Shared Status (Employees remain 100 percent yours).
