PEO for home services: field-tech benefits and workers' comp, under control
Home-services companies use a PEO to control field-tech workers'-comp, run mobile-crew payroll, and offer benefits that retain technicians. ONYX benchmarks PEOs that fit growing multi-market service businesses.
Where home services companies lose money.
Field workers' comp
Technicians in homes and on ladders carry real comp exposure a PEO program helps manage.
Expanding into new markets

Technician retention
Benefits and reliable payroll keep skilled techs from leaving for competitors.
Compliance we keep off your plate
- Workers'-comp class codes for field technicians
