Leave The hiring to a local expert
A PEO helps businesses comply with Missouri labor laws, including:
- Minimum Wage: Missouri’s minimum wage is $12.00 per hour as of 2024.
- Overtime: Employers must pay overtime at 1.5 times the regular rate for hours worked over 40 in a week.
- Sick Leave: Missouri does not require paid sick leave, except in certain localities like St. Louis or Kansas City.
- Meal and Rest Breaks: Missouri law does not mandate meal or rest breaks for adult employees, leaving it to employer policy.
PEOs ensure businesses meet Missouri payroll and tax requirements:
- Payroll Schedule: Employers can choose any schedule (weekly, bi-weekly, etc.), but it must be consistent.
- Tax Compliance:
Missouri Unemployment Insurance (UI): Ranges from 0% to 6.75%, depending on the employer’s experience rating.
State Income Tax: Rates range from 2% to 4.8%, depending on income and filing status.
Partnering with a PEO gives businesses access to competitive benefits, such as:
- Health Insurance: Group rates for health insurance plans.
- Retirement Plans: Access to 401(k) options, often at reduced administrative costs.
- Workers’ Compensation: PEOs provide streamlined workers' compensation coverage and claims management.
- Workplace Safety: Employers must comply with OSHA and Missouri-specific safety regulations.
- Workers’ Compensation: Mandatory for all employers, with rates based on industry and risk.
- Enforcement Agencies:
Missouri Department of Labor and Industrial Relations: Enforces wage and hour laws.
Missouri Human Rights Commission: Oversees anti-discrimination laws.
- Overlapping Laws: If both state and federal laws apply, the law most favorable to the employee takes precedence.
