We manage a whole spectrum of administrative functions with industry-leading integrated software that streamlines your business’ back end. Instead of outsourcing to multiple providers, Aliat offers businesses a one-stop solution with hands-on customer support.
A PEO differs from other administrative outsourcing options because we begin a co-employment agreement with your business. This allows us to pool together multiple small to mid-sized businesses under one umbrella entity, allowing for greater buying power in the marketplace to bring you and your employees the best prices and benefits available. With a PEO, small and mid-sized businesses have access to the same caliber benefits as large companies do.
No. Being co-employed with Aliat means that your employees will have two employers: your business as the common law employer and Aliat as the administrative employer.
Aliat does not intervene with your day to day operations or with the direct supervision and management of your employees. Instead, we focus on all of the back-office administration, liability and compliance matters, allowing you to spend your time doing what you love.
We are here to support your business as much or as little as you need, and to ensure that you, your business and your employees are covered.
Aliat is the only PEO that allows small groups to access premiere Cigna benefits and to participate in an exclusive, high-performance healthcare network that helps smaller businesses take control over the cost and quality of their healthcare.
Our model puts power in the business owners’ hands, enabling them to take actions that control the cost of healthcare each year. No other competitor can offer a healthcare rate stabilization guarantee except for Aliat.

You will follow the employment rules for a company of your size.
They are your employees and work for your company. You are the common law and controlling employer and thus you maintain 100% of the direction and control of your employees. Our client service agreement (CSA) outlines the tasks and responsibilities where we aid and share in the employment liability.
They will come from Aliat. As the administrative employer, we will process the payroll and taxes and file them under our tax payer ID. Because of this, your employee’s paystubs will have our name and logo on them and their direct deposits will be deposited from our name.
There is no change in the process you currently are using when you join the Aliat family of companies.
In a co-employment relationship, your business will come under Aliat’s EIN so that we can process your payrolls and file payroll taxes for you. Your business’s EIN remains dormant for payroll and payroll tax purposes only; you still use it for grants, workers’ compensation, etc.
If you do decide to terminate your co-employment with Aliat, then you will resume using your EIN for payroll and filing payroll taxes after separation.
This does not change, you are under our EIN for payroll, payroll taxes and benefits. You maintain your EIN otherwise.
They are handled in the same manner as you currently are processing them, that financial function is not altered when you join Aliat.
When you join Aliat, all your payrolls are reported under Aliat’s Federal EIN. When coming onboard with us, all you have to do is file your last quarter’s 941 (box 17) indicating the effective date that you will stop paying your employees on. This suspends payroll tax reporting under your business’s Federal EIN while you are partnered with us. We will then add your employees to our Federal EIN and report your payroll taxes for you moving forward.
For PEO reporting states (i.e. Oregon), we immediately start filing your business under our state tax ID numbers. Just like with federal reporting, you will want to indicate on your last quarterly return that it is your final return because you will be on Aliat’s moving forward.
For client reporting states (i.e. Washington), we continue to report under your existing account information. When you onboard with us, we will collect your state ID numbers so that we can file these for you moving forward.
If you are in a PEO reporting state, all future reporting goes under our tax ID number. When you come onboard with us, we file documentation with the state telling them you are part of our PEO. Unfortunately, the state can be behind in processing this, so you may still receive non-filing notices for several quarters. If this happens, just email us a copy of the form and we will take care of it.
Yes. Joining Aliat does not change your eligibility for small business tax breaks such as the 20 percent tax deduction created by Section 199A.
No more taking the “crossed-fingers” approach to HR. We believe in proactive support from an HR team that cares about your company as much as you do.
