Obama to go after independent contractors (1099’s)
Posted by Kristian Svindland on February 22nd, 2010
Here is an article from Inc. Magazine from last week. Let’s hope that Obama can get somewhere with this as legitimate companies get undersold on their services every day by what I call “pirate” companies that don’t pay taxes, don’t have workers comp, and use poor labor practices in order to win business.

Entrepreneur online onboard with PEO and HR outsourcing
Posted by Kristian Svindland on February 19th, 2010
Good article in Entrepreneur online that discusses HR outsourcing and PEO and touches on ASO.

When will the ban on texting while driving hit the PEO arena?
Posted by Kristian Svindland on February 4th, 2010
I am waiting to see the first case of a workers comp carrier denying coverage of a claim because an employee was doing something illegal…aka driving while texting…during the course of work. I wonder how a PEO will handle this?
