Drawbacks of employee leasing Less control: One of the greatest risks of employee leasing is that you're delegating an important part of your business to an outside company that doesn't know your business as well as you do. You lose control of your processes, systems and benefits.
A PEO, or professional employer organization, has a different relationship with client companies. Instead of being a firm that leases employees to their clients, a PEO becomes an employer of record for the client's employees. This is known as a co-employment agreement.
While leased employees are legally employed by a PEO, they work under the day-to-day management and supervision of the leasing business — much like any other employee.
Employee leasing is an arrangement between a business and a staffing firm, who supplies workers on a project-specific or temporary basis. These employees work for the client business, but the leasing agency pays their salaries and handles all of the HR administration associated with their employment.

State laws on leases and rental agreements can vary, but a landlord or property management company should provide you with a copy of your signed lease upon request. You should make your request in writing, so you have proof if there is a dispute later.
For example, leased employees are official employees for the PEO that manages them, while independent contractors operate independently of any employer, and they typically provide a service to a client who pays them directly for those services.
