Why use a PEO?

Most business owners will agree, they did not start a business to handle the many complexities that accompany the hiring of just their first employee. Nevertheless, today's business owners are spending an ever-increasing amount of time and effort managing employee-related matters.

Our concept is simple - instead of spending your valuable time on unproductive, exhausting paperwork and administration - delegate these tasks to Abel, a professional firm with expertise in every facet of the employer-employee relationship. This allows owners and managers to return their focus to the revenue-producing aspects of their business.

Why choose Abel?

Abel has the necessary expertise in the management of human resources administration, payroll and payroll taxes, workers' compensation insurance, and employee benefits because it's our only business. Our clients eliminate the risk of costly errors, fines, and penalties because Abel assumes the responsibility for the compliance issues that can cause them. We are "Abel" to generate cost savings for our clients by using our management experience, excellent ratings, and good standing to reduce certain specific employer costs.

What makes the benefits package better
with Abel?

The employees of Abel are part of a large corporation that is constantly growing. Our size and our growth enable us to provide our employees with an ever-increasing host of benefits. Abel's employee benefits package is so comprehensive that it allows our clients to compete with major corporations in attracting and retaining the highest quality employees.

What makes Abel different from other PEO’s?

At Abel, our mission is to provide the very best of what a PEO relationship can offer at the best possible price to an ever expanding base of clients and leased employees. We will supply these services to both our clients and our leased employees with the highest regard for the personal service that is expected from a family-owned and operated business.

We believe that in order to do justice to the employer relationship, all employer responsibilities must be assumed completely by Abel without the need for the Client to "read the fine print" of our service agreement. When exceptional issues occur, they will be handled with the clients' and the employees' best interests in mind.

We are not a company focused on selling insurance or financial services such as payroll and/or retirement planning. We are a firm that provides Comprehensive Human Resources Management that includes many of the benefits larger, more progressive companies use to their advantage.

What type of healthcare benefits does Abel offer?

Medical Insurance – Abel offers various medical insurance plans to full-time, eligible employees. At Abel, we believe that employees and their families should have personal choice when selecting their healthcare providers. We maintain relationships with several carriers so employee chances of utilizing their family’s existing physicians are far greater than they would be if we had only one health insurance carrier. Abel’s medical insurance programs are obtained from well-established insurance carriers, providing safe and secure coverage for employees and their families. Through our in house agents, Abel assumes the responsibility to obtain the policies, interact with insurance companies, resolve disputed claims and handle many of the other difficult issues surrounding group health insurance.

Dental – Realizing that all dentists and all dental care needs cannot be covered under one plan design, Abel offers several optional programs for dental care. As many as three different dental care plans are offered and just about everyone in the country can participate in at least one plan. These plan designs vary from a more traditional approach with a small deductible and coinsurance to a smaller HMO plan that covers much more than the typical plan.

Vision – At a time when vision care is being watered down to a small benefit offered in conjunction with medical plans, a separate vision care plan is becoming a necessity. Our plan has been providing vision care services since 1955 and is the nation’s largest provider of vision services, offering nationwide access, an extensive network, hassle-free claims, coverage for glasses and contact lenses.

Prescription Drug – Abel's prescription drug benefit provider’s participating pharmacy network is nationwide in scope and includes both independent pharmacies and chain stores. Over 95% of all pharmacies will accept our current prescription card. They offer seven day a week toll-free customer service access. Service representatives, who are familiar with individual plan designs, will talk directly with employees. They will help with program questions, proper drug use and unusual situations that may arise. There is a pharmacist on call 24 hours a day and they can also direct employees to the nearest participating pharmacy location anywhere in the US.

Life – Our Basic Life policy provides Group Term Life with Accidental Death and Dismemberment coverage and is mandatory for all participants in any Abel medical plan or can be elected as a stand-alone policy.
