The History of CPEhr

The company was founded in 1982 to meet the growing employment challenges facing California employers. CPEhr began as a small payroll, employee benefits and HR provider, with 10 corporate employees. Over the past two-and-a-half decades, CPEhr has grown to one of the largest, HR Outsourcing and PEO firms in the California.

It remains privately held and currently employs close to 90 corporate professionals in the areas of Employment Compliance, Safety and Risk Management, Employee Benefits, Retirement Planning, Payroll and Accounting.

Why Choose CPEhr

As a California based HR Consulting and Outsourcing firm since 1982, CPEhr has a unique advantage in its knowledge of local business employment challenges. CPEhr offers several unique advantages for California employers:

• Longevity
• Financial Stability
• Proven Service Track Record
• Size and Diversity of Client Base
• Flexibility in Service Offering

While the frequency of PEOs facing financial distress has declined over the past decade, there are still incidences of firms filing bankruptcy. Founded close to thirty years ago in 1982, CPEhr is one of the oldest HR Outsourcing and PEO firms in the state.

Financial Stability

The PEO or HRO firm is entrusted to pay payroll, payroll taxes, and insurance premiums. Similar to longevity, it is critical for a PEO to maintain strong financial credentials, long-term banking relationships, and the ability to prove taxes and insurance premiums have been paid timely. CPEhr maintains extremely close ties with its legal, banking, and accounting relationships, with some of whom CPEhr has worked for over a decade.

Proven Service Track Record

Stable finances and longevity do not necessarily equate to good human resource practices or customer service. CPEhr's team of licensed HR, Risk and Financial professionals has a proven track record of high-quality, high-touch service. CPEhr consistenly rates close to 5 out of 5 on its annual Client Satisfaction Surveys.

Size and Diversity of Client Base

The ideal PEO will have a large and diverse client base, serving a wide range of industries. The diversification insulates the PEO from fluctuations within a particular market and dilutes the risk over many industries. CPEhr currently services over 300 clients representing 15,000 employees in a wide range of industries. Its target markets include small to mid-sized businesses with 25 to 250 employees in the following industries:

Warehousing, general business services, health care, retail, non-profit organizations, light manufacturing, hospitality, restaurant, entertainment, light construction, convalescent hospital, credit union, banking and financial services.

Flexibility in Service Offering

Many PEOs take the “one size fits all” approach by requiring clients to take all the services offered, from payroll and insurance, to benefits and training. Others only offer a limited scope of services. CPEhr prides itself in its personalized service approach allowing clients select the HRO Program that works best for them, from single services such as Employee Handbooks or Management Training, to the complete PEO solution.

It maintains strong relationships with local vendors and insurance companies. Additionally, CPEhr's local corporate office ensures quicker response time and an on-site presence.
