OneSource Employee Management

Overview

OneSource Employee Management is a professional employer organization (PEO) based in Cincinnati, Ohio, and founded in 2004. Its LinkedIn profile describes it as a Vensure Employer Solutions company. What sets it apart is workers' compensation. Ohio employers can't buy workers' comp from a private insurer. They buy it from the state's Bureau of Workers' Compensation (BWC) or qualify to self-insure, a bar most small businesses can't clear on their own. OneSource is self-insured, so a client can be covered under its program instead of a BWC policy. OneSource says clients pay for that coverage with each payroll rather than in advance. For employers who stay with the BWC, it also helps with group rating and group retro programs. The rest is a standard PEO bundle: payroll, HR support, compliance, unemployment administration, recruiting help, and benefits guidance (medical, dental, vision, life, disability and retirement). On benefits, OneSource says it can supply a package or work alongside your current agent. Before you sign, ask how claims are handled under the self-insured program and what happens to your BWC experience rating if you leave. Also ask which states it can cover your employees in, since the self-insured program is an Ohio program. Already a OneSource client looking for the payroll login?
