You source. We employ. WorkGenius legally employs the W-2 workers you place - payroll, benefits, and compliance in every state.
You're great at sourcing and winning clients. Everything below is what gets in the way.
A client needs someone in a state you're not set up in - so you pass on the business.
Every new state means registrations, tax accounts, and quarterly wage & tax returns - forever.
One misclassification, workers' comp claim, or audit is an existential risk for a small agency.
You can't match the health and 401(k) plans big firms use to poach your best candidates.
Payroll, onboarding, tax, invoicing - the admin steals the hours you should spend selling.
You fund payroll days before your client pays - and legacy providers make you fund earlier still.
WorkGenius is already the registered employer in all 50 states, with every account, filing, and policy in place. You place the worker - we do all of it. Here's what disappears from your plate:
Going global down the road? We cover 100+ countries too.
Fund payroll Thursday - your people are paid Friday. Most providers make you fund Tuesday or Wednesday. That's 2–3 extra days of working capital in your account, every pay cycle.
Same money - it just stays in your account 2–3 days longer.
You land the client and place the right talent - the work you're great at.
WorkGenius becomes the compliant W-2 employer, in any of the 50 states.
Payroll, taxes, filings, workers' comp, benefits, and compliance - all handled.
You bill your client and keep your markup - we handle the employment behind it.
WorkGenius is the Employer of Record - the legal, W-2 employer of the workers you place. You remain the agency your client works with.
Yes. You bill your client and keep your markup. Our fee is one all-in markup for the compliant employment behind it.
All 50. We're already the registered employer - with tax accounts, filings, and workers' comp in place - in every state, so you can place a worker anywhere today.
Immediately. Because we're already set up everywhere, there's no registration and no waiting.
Access to enterprise-grade benefits - health coverage, 401(k), and more - the kind that help you attract and keep great people.
Fund payroll Thursday and your people are paid Friday. Most providers make you fund Tuesday or Wednesday - so you keep your cash 2–3 days longer, every pay cycle.
Pricing is one all-in markup on the worker's pay, covering payroll, employer taxes, and compliance. Benefits are billed separately. You keep your client markup - talk to our partnerships team for a quote based on your placements.
A PEO co-employs your staff under your own entities, so you still register and file in every state. An Employer of Record is the sole legal employer of the workers you place - so you need no entities, tax accounts, or filings anywhere.
Yes. We employ placed workers as compliant W-2 employees, and can engage independent contractors compliantly where that is the correct classification - with the misclassification risk on us.
No. Because WorkGenius is already the registered employer in all 50 states, you place workers anywhere without setting up a single entity or opening state tax accounts.
It includes payrolling but goes further: as the Employer of Record we take on the full employment relationship and its liability - payroll, taxes, benefits, workers’ comp, and compliance - not just cutting the checks.
When you need it, we cover 100+ countries. But most agencies start with our all-50-states US coverage.
Keep sourcing and winning clients. Let WorkGenius be the employer of record behind your placements. Let's talk about becoming a partner.
