Frequently Asked Questions
Comprehensive employer services designed to save you money, reduce risk, and stay in control.
What is an AEO?
An Alternative Employer Organization (AEO) is a model unique to Ohio that gives you the benefits of a PEO, like workers’ comp coverage, payroll coordination, and claims management, without giving up your tax ID (EIN) or control of your business.
You keep your EIN, brand, and payroll provider. We handle the risk, compliance, and cost savings.
How is an AEO different from a PEO?
With a PEO, your employees are moved under the PEO’s EIN and payroll system. That means less flexibility and a harder time leaving if things don’t work out.
With an AEO like Armada:
- You stay in control of your EIN and payroll
- You keep your business identity intact
- You gain lower workers’ comp costs and simpler administration
How does Armada Employer Group save me money?
- Lower, more predictable premiums
- Pay-as-you-go billing tied to payroll (no surprise audits)
- Faster claim resolution that reduces long-term costs
- Armada handles legal fees and TPA costs internally
Will I have to change my payroll provider?
No. You keep your current payroll system. We integrate seamlessly with ADP, Paychex, and other systems: no disruption, no retraining, and no extra costs.
What happens if I have a claim?
We manage the entire process directly, from incident to resolution. That includes working with your employee, healthcare providers, our TPA. Our goal is simple: faster recovery for your team; lower costs for your business.
Can Armada help with OSHA and workplace safety?
Yes. Our team includes former OSHA professionals who conduct on-site safety audits, compliance assessments, and training. We don’t just insure risk, we help prevent it.
