[Originating in the Committee on Government Organization]
Requesting the Joint Committee on Government and Finance study
regulating the professional employer organization industry in
West Virginia.
Whereas, Professional employer organizations (PEOs) provide
human resource services to small businesses in this state; and
Whereas, PEO services allow small businesses more time to
focus on their business; and

business employers by developing cost-effective methods to satisfy
their personnel requirements and help provide small business
employees with access to certain employment benefits which might
otherwise not be available to them; and
Whereas, The PEO industry is relatively new in West Virginia,
but is quickly growing; and
Whereas, To protect public interest, there may be a need to
regulate the PEO industry; therefore, be it
Resolved by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That the Joint Committee on Government and Finance study
regulating the professional employer organization industry in West
Virginia; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Joint Committee on Government and
Finance report to the regular session of the Legislature, 2008, on

of any legislation necessary to effectuate its recommendations;
and, be it
Further Resolved, That the expenses necessary to conduct this
